What is the best filtration add on for your sump. Just looking for ideas from more experienced hobbyist.


Bio spheres?
Filter floss ?
Live rock in sump?
 
If you want mechanical, I like filter floss because no cleaning is required. If you want biological, then yes, rocks, alive is possible. But if you have enough in your display, you don’t really need more in the sump.
