Hey again.
This time I need advice on my 20 gallon tall tank. I am going to have my 10 gallon drilled so it can sit under the 20 as a fuge/sump. I am haveing second thoughts on the fuge though and I need some ideas. Should I even have a sump (well I guess you could say I will because my skimmer will be down here). I plan to do 3 baffles with acrylic from home depot (I have to go extra cheap this time because money is running low for this month's fish buget). I plan to silicone the baffles to the tank. Then I plan to have about 3 inches of sand and a whole lot of xenia cuttings and macro gowing in there. (Thats why I am going to have 3 Baffles). Does this sound ok?. Do I just need a fuge? Please help. Thanks. Also if you can find any pictures of you sumps/fuges with baffles, before they were filled up, I'd realy like to see them as ideas. I think we all know that I am very lazy in the DIY part of reefkeeping. lol Thanks in advance
