need help going all out on my 55 gallon
Hey folks! hows it going?
I finally got the green light to get crazy with my aquarium at the house i live at. I have been successfully keeping my aggressive FOWLR tank for about a year now. with a really high survival rate! I need help making plans. I have never done a sump, or a refugium, or Automatic Top Off, but those are all things I'd love to do, to improve to the quality of life for my tank inhabitants. Things I have already: 55 gal AGA Coralife 48 Inch Aqualight W/ 4-65W Straight Pin Base AquaC Remora Hang-On Protein Skimmer w/ Drain Fitting + Maxi-Jet 1200 Pump Fluval 305 (which I hope I can eliminate) direct water line access with 24gpd RO Unit and direct drainage lines What I'd like to do: setup a sump/refugium all one tank (maybe a 40gal?), have a drain at the bottom for easy water change, and some how possibly utilize the protein skimmer i already have inside the sump. have an automatic top off with my RO unit, and setup a brute tank system for making saltwater. I'd like to use something llike this to take water out of the main tank and possibly have an inline UV sterilizer before it gets to the sump. any help AT ALL would be sooooo appreciated. I have very little idea what i'm doing as I have never done anything this advanced with aquariums. |
