wet/dry over flow tank

[doviiman]

Can some one give me an ideal as to how big the wet/dry bio holding tank needs to be for a 800 to 1000 gallon aquarium. The tank that the water drip into when it flow out the tank..

check into a 275g tote, they are for sale around here cheap (200) and can get ones that held like food and would work well if you can hide a 4ft cube

Biggest you can fit under the stand. I don't know if there is a formula for this. You can't hurt by going as big as will fit or there is room for. You might want to leave some space to store things under the tank.

A good rule of thumb is 1/3 the size.

Okay, got it, thanks all!

Yeah I always thought the guideline was 1/4, but I would aim more towards 1/3 anyway. You can't hurt anything by having a bigger W/D.

Anyone know of a vendor who sells wet/dry in large sizes that ship?
