Hello MFKers,

How you doing

As some of you know I have 2 peacock bass and a pike cichlid in my 100 gallon
I change around 50% water every Wednesday&Saturday with good/super fine vacuuming.

I just got the space, funds, permission for my sump.

The space I have is 70 cm by 60 cm and height max is 50 cm

Can you please help me with a few ideas how to make the chambers in the sump for the return to the tank I really want a spray bar.
That way the water is better oxygenated.
I was thinking about using my whisper 60 HOB for pumping water with debris out of tank to sump but don't know if that is enough cause im looking for a turnover for 700 GPH or more.
I'll attach a drawing to have better idea what I mean and what I want do

Please guide me in building my sump and the required pumps if needed.
 
this is an old picture from my old setup but same tank and same fish
here is a picture of the outside of my HOB.
