Hi all. Been recommended to ask on here apparently you guys can help.
I've kept fish for nearly 40 years but never had a sump. Just bought a second hand 800 litre/180 US gal tank plus 250 litre/55 US gal sump. The tank has two 55mm and one 34mm holes. The sump was designed for marine use but this will be freshwater, I keep Datnioides.
So this is where my knowledge ends, what would you guys do with it? I am happy to add more baffles to the sump or whatever is needed for best results? For the drain should I go Durso or Herbie or perhaps Bean Animal if the return is over the side?
Any help or ideas please?
