| Re: Sump Design Picture ... can it work?? any problems ?? Put your skimmer in the section where the water is coming into the sump. Your return pump in the middle section and your fuge on the end with sand some LR and cheato. Adam Jenkins has a very nice set up under his tank he has recently posted a pic of. |

| Re: Sump Design Picture ... can it work?? any problems ?? would the live rock though collect alot of stuff like detreius??? and would i need an overflow or can i just put the tube leading to inside the tank?? o and i wouldent want a section for a fuge just live rock cuz i already have a hang on fuge.. i just want this to put some heaters, phosban reactor, hold some extra water, and for some more live rock maybe even a small section for xiena. so i can frag. and last thing would this be noisey ? ?
