I need some assistance please from all the pro's.
I want to build an external sump for my little 24g Nano cube.I want to create more water volume, add a skimmer,run a little DSB, and pump through a little chiller back to my little tank. I have a little cupboard next to the nano that I will utilize, but as always "space is the big problem. Attached is a rough sketch of what I am thinking of.(sorry but have not learnt the sketchup yet). Next to this little sump, I want to put the chiller.
I am thinking of Reeftek TS1 in first chamber.Does anyone know what the water level should be for it to operate in am optimal manner? Then it will overflow and run between the channels on top of DSB until it reaches the return compartment.From there I will pump to chiller on to my tank. What do you guys think?? Will it work??
How deep must my sandbed be? ie: 150mm 200mm? I will use playsand, and beg for a cup of "matured" sand from someone. Where should I keep my heater?
I just want to "jack" up my system, and get a better quality through my nano. I hope the pro's agree with what I am thinking. I await your response with great anticipation. Thanks in advance
