A - 2 compartments with a decent skimmer and overflow.
B - 3 compartments with skimmer, NP pellet reactor and overflow
C - 3 compartments with skimmer, carbon, phos and/or purigen and overflow.
D - 3 compartments with skimmer, macro algae with light only and overflow
All depends on how you want to run your tank. I had a cube like that and only used the live rock inside and a skimmer as filtration. I also ran a bit of carbon and did 10% weekly water changes.
The sump will be too small for a DSB, unless you have a remote DSB hidden somewhere in the next door room
Was thinking of going DSB, I just love a DSB, the space is 500 x 420 x 700 high, was thinking of making the sump 2 tanks ontop of each other? and I`m going to use a TS1 skimmer...
Running a standard 3 chamber sump, with first 150mm, (think that is just big enough for TS1) and 100mm for return, then centre chamber is about 240 by 420. That will be 40% of your display footprint.
I run a system previously with 34%. And it was a successful DSB.
I need to do some measurements on my TS1 to confirm.
@Francois, Thanx must admit @Goby helped alot... this is going to be my frag tank, Going to run, Seachem Purigen, Matrix, Phosgaurd, and Carbon...:yeahdude:
Ahh well then I got a reason to dose Martin, this tank is going to be in the living room, thinking of putting some fish in it, but I`m surely going to put some frags in it 2...
