I'd like to make 10 gallon sump/refugium. My display tank is 14 gallon.
What material would i use to make the sump? Plexiglas? Acrilic? Where would I buy this? Home Depo???
I'm planning on having the sump in the stand below the tank.
I will have overflow chambers but would I use gravity to syphon the water from the tank down to the sump and have a pump for return flow? How would I get the same volume of water flowing from tank, to tank?
Or would I use 2 pumps? 1 to run water to the sump and another to run water to the display tank?
Have been thinking about it all day and it starting to give me a headache. lol
