are the tanks drilled? how will they be plumbed together? how many pumps do you plan to run?
i personally would not use a wet/dry as the main filtration for that many tanks....
i would look into sytems designed for aquaculture, go to aquatic ecosystem,s website and read some of their articles.

For 1100g, depending on the bio-load your going to need upwards of 400g of sump. I would use the multi-barrel approach, as they don't have to be directly beside each other

good replys!
tanks are all drilled, and i would be using PVC pipe.
maybe have a barrel in each corner? hmmmmm im new to the monster room, as of now i have a few mediumsize tanks (100 gals/55s ).
wet/dry sounds bad then what else would i use?
so i suppose rule of thumb is like having the sump 1/3 of the size of the tanks total?
im on a few forums but they arent really into the "bigger"scale things like you guys.
and before i get a PM about the Pic thats my g/f and she gets on here also on this name.
