It's seems the more equipment I get for my tank the less room I have LOL so I have a 90g drilled. It came with the sump as is. I have made some upgrades to the filtration but ultimately I'm not happy with the layout and size of the sump. I BARELY have enough room for my bio pellet reactor & pump, skimmer, return pump, heater and now getting a UV sterilizer & pump.
Here's a pic of my sump now.
I also don't like the bio balls and have been advised to switch them out. I know if I do this it's going to cause a huge change in parameters. I also don't like the flat tray, it's a pain and I can't really use a sock. I'd want a sump with a sock. The next sump I get won't have the bio balls, but I still need a place for my matrix, purigen etc. Can some people show me pics of their sump setups? I just need the physical space for all my equipment and then another form of media instead of the bio balls.
Do I just remove the bioballs cold turkey when switching?? I have a heavy bioload. Not sure how to go about switching
