Well I just sealed the deal on that 210g you've probably heard me mention over the past few days. This is how the tank is set up at the moment. The original owner linked the 2 sumps together and pumps back into the tank via a single pump. I've never really seen anything like this so I want to hear your thoughts on it. In a nutshell, each overflow is connected to its own independent sump. The sumps are then linked at the ends and pumped back into the tank via an external pump. I wasn't sure how to express this in my drawing, so I'll explain. The sumps are placed under the tank with the longest side running perpendicular to the length of the tank. Does that make sense? Rather than run each sump the long ways, the narrower sized are facing forward.
What do you guys think of this setup? I'm planning on a mag 24 to return the water and 2 powerheads in the tank itself to promote circulation.
, just a modification of a full size sump.
