New sump design fro 3ft tank


Recommended Posts

Correct me if I'm wrong, but normally filter wool comes first to filter out the big particles, then skimmer? or your overflow will go straight to the middle compartment first? then flow over to the sides? Then change the baffle design for the skimmer section.

So from what

I hear is to swap the Skimmer and the filter wool compartment right? Will not be able to change overall dimension and the skimmer compartment as this new sump is due to me buying a huge skimmer (at least compared to my old HnS one)

Thanks for the feedback.

yupz remember to take into account the internal height of your cabinet for your skimmer, otherwise you will need to put in the skimmer first before pushing the sump into the cabinet.
