So I bought an acrylic kit on that big
[hr]
site, thinking it was a built item. I got a bunch of parts in a box and some cement.
They had it all cut out but it was up to me to build it. It was advertized as a refugium but it very slim and i thought would act better as a sump/filtration unit.
So I built it and used the baffles as a center diver that would hold a nitrate absorbing pad, as youll see in the schematics i drew up in paint. Pictures werent showing much.
I wanna ask you guys if you think my design will work, as it is currently running, with LR from my DT as well as some chaeto.
It works by pumping water up over the tank wall, and into the 2.7g hob sump. the overflow/out hole/pipe is half an inch lower than the inlet so the water just pours right into the tank via the elbow joint that is also used to hang it.
the side that has the higher elbow joint is actually hanging on an acrylic "ledge" ill take some pics laer tonight so you can see.
anyways, here is the drawing, let meknow what you guys think,
