I dont want to create another Topic, so I will post it here.
I spoke with one friend of mine that was going to sell me the sump medias and pumps, I showed him my sump project, and he told me that he had one better idea since I got lots of space at my home.
Its pretty simple, and cheap:
2- Dry Wet, its a 200 L barrel. It will be filled with biologic media.
1- Barrel Cover, its all puctured. And above it I will put mecanic filters, acrylic wool, or something like that. I can put more mecanical media if I need.
3- Pump that will take water to Dry Wet.
Its more what my pocket can pay, and I will have more space for biological media and I will invest more on the turnover, since I will save on the sump glass. Its confirmed that works.
Ps.: At start you may think, WTF is he going to decrease the volume of the sump? But it has a 200L real volume for biologic media, and the sump was going to have 300L - partitions, pump.. And I also think a Dry Wet system is more powerful than a normal sump.
What do you guys think about this?
