I just got a 55 gallon-short ( 36 x 19) and have a 20 gallon I would like to use as a sump.
My plans are as follows.
Dual 1.5" bulkheads on rear panes ( "s down from corners)
Feeding into sump, first chamber will hold Skimmer ( Have not decided if skimmer will be directly fed from DT) Under and over baffles.
Contimplating including fuge in middle, then feeding into return chamber
Return pump would be around 500 gph
Over tank wall return.
?'s
1. Would the 20 gallon be enough to hold the volume of water?
2.Would this pump rating give me WFS?
3 Any ideas are welcome
