I have a biocube 29 that is soon to be drilled. With a 17"x17"x17 sump. What's the best configuration? Maybe no chambers? Maybe one? What would you do? I will post a pic in a minute of the current set up.

There a few questions you have to answer first... What equipment will be in the sump? What return pump? Skimmer space needed? Going to run a filter sock?

You'll want at least two chambers with a bubble trap seperating them so as to avoid bubbles being returned to your DT.
