Hey guys, I'm going to be building my first sump this weekend and needed some help.
I have to use a 20H as a 20L won't fit into my Oceanic tech stand. I have a 57 Illuminata.
I would like to run a 3 chamber sump in this order. Skimmer/ return / fuge.
My question is how do I determine baffle heights? I don't want any overflows!!! I am planning on running an OCT-NWB-110 Skimmer so I'm guessing I should have an 8" skimmer section. But I can't find anything about the height it needs.
I will be running a marineland maxijet utility 3000 pump. How big of a return section do I need? i will be running ATO so I would guess I could get by with 6" wide? Then use the rest for fuge and the bubble trap for the skimmer section?
Someone help please!!!
Thanks!
