Hi,
For my 300 gallon build I'll be setting up a continous water change system. There will be three john guest tubes running into the sump: new sw in, old sw out, and fw in for ato. This will be controlled by some litremeter pumps.
My skimmer will be a Vertex 300 cone which I noticed will have a drain line. I am aware of people who use buckets or containers to collect excess skimmate which they empty every once in a while. My idea is to run more tubing from the skimmer into the basement that will drain out into the floor drain. The tubing would run about 30 feet across and 10 feet down. Is this even possible? Forgive my ignorance as this will be my first reef tank.
Thanks,
Tyler
