Hello everyone, I am relatively new to the hobby (7 months to be exact) and today is the first time I ran into this site. It is unbelievable, many of you really seem to know the nitty gritty specifics of the hobby. Anywas, I am hoping you guys can help me out.
I currently have a 55 semi reef going on. I want to add a 29 gal sump to my system. My tank is not drilled, so I am looking at a overflow setup. I have currently been weighing the pros and cons between Lifereef and CPR, I am leaning toward Lifereef, but then again you guys might have something to add. I also have been looking at the Durso Standpipe website and I am not sure if I also need one of those. I am thinking of moving abt 600gph so I am not sure what pump to get, also does the pump gph and the overflow gph have to differ? So what I am asking is, once I have the overflow, do I need a durso?, also where can I get the hosing to run from the overflow/standpipe to my sump, and what kind of special diffuser do I need to have the water return and circulate my tank.
I know this may sound confusing, but I hope you guys catch my drift and can give me some pointers.
