hello all!
ive been on a different board and not getting much help i hope that i can get some more help i was donated a 70 gal tank 36x18x24 and need help!! the tank was drilled for a closed loop system in the bottom and has a small little giant pump and a ocean clear mech. filter. the drain and the return are both on the floor. i was told that this setup is not the best for a reef systemso i want to remove this. so im trying to decide what the next steps are to use a fuge system. i want to plug the suction and maybee leave the return. or if it is better to plug both and just run a return to the top. i want to build the fuge and i have a lifereef overflow box(600 gph). in the picture the top of it shows the current layout and the bottom is the proposed setup i dont know what pump i should use for the return the. return line is only about 2 feet of over head. i also have a remora 1200 skimmer for the fuge. any and all advice is welcome please give input.
