Hi all, I am beginning to think about adding a sump to my reef and need some guidance and recommendations for my research.
I am in need of a hang on back overflow, pumps and sump. My tank is not drilled and is already a functional reef.
My current tank is a 46 gallon bow tank. I have a coralife 65 gallon super skimmer hanging on the back of the tank and am running carbon and phos lock through a power filter that is also a hang on back. I would ideally like to be able to move the skimmer to the sump, have extra room for eventual additions of various reactors and possible grow a macro algae for nitrate and phosphate control. The sump must fit under my stand which has an opening of 18 inches, but the sump can be angled in sideways should the length and width be greater than the 18 inch opening. The attached pic will give you an idea of the overall set up. The stand dimensions are 37x17x32
Can you guys please make some product recommendations for me. I of course have been doing my own research but want to get some professional, long time reefer opinions. THANKS!!!!
