Okay so I have this tank I’m about to set up and upgrade to but only thing left for me to do is the sump.
I have my complete tank setup everything is ready except the sump.
sump design is incredibly difficult for me to understand anyways, it doesn’t help that there are no baffles that came with the sump. I’ve read up on r2r and I came up with this design.
These two pictures are :
one With my imagined layout and one of the raw sump.
The design is basically how I want it to look.
It would help a lot for advice and input even down to how high to start the baffles and how much drop each baffle should be.
Tank volume is 860l or 227 gallon
Tank volume with sump is 1020 or 269 gallon
Sump volume at 30cm height or 12 inches
Is 160 liters or 42 gallon
Total sump height is
44cm or 17 inches
Also for the weirs there is space between the refugium and the the return compartment to have that but I dont know how to create that .
