Hey everyone. Just wanted to post some pics of my latest diy task I've done and this time it was designing a refugium sump that could hold everything I need it to and be compact. Let me know your guys thoughts.
I started off with a simple 10 gal tank as that is going to be the sump for my 20 gal drop off tank.
Area #1 is the intake from display tank / protein slimmer.
Water will flow over a 8" wall with baffles cut in the to the next area.
Area #2 is the camber for my heater and a media reactor.
After that the water will flow through mg custom cut out that took me the longest by far lop. This is to allow a nice calm flow into the refugium area.
Area #3 is the refugium area
After that the water will flow over another 8" baffle and then down and under the next baffle.
Area 4 is a bubble trap
Area 5 will be my return pump.
I think I cover everything. What do you guys think?
