    S.O.S. sump pump aquarium design HELP !!!!!!!!! Please !!!!

    I have some ammonia remover at home and I was thinking to use it, no any special reason. How about the bio-balls ? Should I leave it ? Isn't it a nitrate factory ? Is it okay for my fish tank ? Do you think my design is good ? Thanks.
