Hi all, What is the best to put between the actual aquarium (90G Rimless) & the stand. i was in between either styrofoam (either 0.5 or 1cm in thickness), thick yoga mat or one of these : thanks,

Hello all, I’m about to start building a sump for my 90 gallon aquarium. I’m just wondering if there’s an “ideal” inside diameter for the intake and return plumbing. The bulkheads that are built in have a 1 1/2 inch diameter. Should I go with this size, or would a 1” or 1 1/4” be better based on...
