Hi all...didn't know what forum would be best for this so just going with general.
I am in the process of setting up a small 10 gallon NPS tank. It is going to feed into the sump of my main 57 gallon aquarium. I'll be headed to Florida over Christmas so need to set up a automated feeder to run for a week. I'm pretty sure I'm going with the Avast as it gets great reviews but it is very pricey so getting two is out of the question.
Anyways my proposal is to have it set up on the 10 gallon aquarium. Then when it feeds have it near the overflow so a lot of it drains into the sump compartment right before the return on my other tank. So what I want to see is food enter the 10 gallon, and then have a lot of it overflow and be moved to my main tank to feed my fish and corals there ( the NPS tank will have a fish as well, currently considering a CB red scooter dragonet.)
Is this idea insane or does it have merit?
Thanks!
Eric
