ok so i am building my sump out of a 29 gal glass tank, and i think i will use a design i have seen a few times. it is the one that has a refugium separated on the right side gravity dumping into the return pump area, and fed by a ball valve on the overflow line or return line. my quesstion is. should i paint the divider for the fue or do something to stop light from getting into the main sump area?? i would also need to do something about the open space between the fuge and sump area. wouldnt algae grow all over my pump if i dont do that and let light hit it? also, does anyone know of something that i can glue to the glass to act as a stopper (to set an eggcrate on for my wet dry filter) thanks
