Is it possible to remove the false wall, and leave just the last chamber and place a surface skimmer where the pastic is lower than the main wall. And have a drain and return bulkhead in the chamber. Then have it goto a 10 gallon sump where i could put a skimmer and the heater.
Or could i just place a bak pak skimmer hanging from the back with the pump in the 3rd chamber and the return in the second chamber? By cutting some of the back of the hood out it would fit wouldnt it?
As for the lighting i know some local that has an extra ballast and hood. I would like to add the 2 other bulbs into the hood so i would have 4 36watt bulbs and 2 ballasts so i could have a dawn-dusk lighting. How would i do about placing the bulbs in there? I know i will need to a couple fans.
