Hello all!
I recently just bought a 90 gallon aquarium with a over flow system, stand, 2 different canopies, canister filter, and a 20 gallon acrylic sump tank. I am very new to using a sump tank for filtration and have no idea where to start. I am up for the challenge and just needed some guidance. My plan is to run freshwater as well.
First of all, to be able to use the sump, I am guessing I would need some kind of pump? If so, what would be suitable for a 90gallon tank?
Secondly, What would be ideal for using filtration in the sump tank? I use SeaChem Matrix in the canister and HOB but there is so much space in this sump tank!
Last but not least, I also think I need to use some kind of attachment to be able to stop the sump tank for maintenance needs. And ideas?
If there is anything else I am missing, please let me know. Thank you!
