This is the sump that came with my new 85 Gal corner tank.
1. Do I need to put check valves in the return and drain pipes?
2. Should I throw out the bio balls and put live rock in that space?
3. I have two 150 watt stealth heaters should I put them in the sump and if so where would be the best place. The pump room would be tight. If put them in the front will they be in the way of the refugium area?
4. Do I need a sponge filter at the output end of the skimmer?
I know lots of questions but I am trying to not make too many mistakes getting it set up.
