Help w/ DIY sump/fuge

[oohmiller]

Hey i currently am running a 75gallon tank with fluval 304 and seaclone 150, i have decided to turn it into a reef, so i am ditching the canister and making a sump/fuge.
i have a pic, can anyone tell me if this is a good plan, the Xs are bioballs
Thanks!

most people say ditch the bio balls but, Ive had them in my sump for more than a year and had no problems at all (so far) You might want to put a skimmer in too. Make things easier to do maintance. Just a thought!!!

i dont think you need that baffle second to the right. .it dont reall ydo anything much.. just use 1 wall between the biio-balls and the fuge. ohh and you could make the return pump area a little bigger to fit a skimmer..
