Hi guys and girls I have a few questions some may be silly and some may of been answered many times so I’m sorry.
so my questions are.
Iv just purchased a 230l tank ( 60 gallons)
I plan on running a 70l sump ( 10 gallons)
So total of 300l ( 70 gallons)
I read somewhere I need a pump in range of 6-10 so Iv gone 2500lph (8.33)
I am assuming this is the pump that pumps from the sump to the main tank?
If so I’m assuming this is a pump that goes in the sump it’s self?
or is this an external pump with filter?
or do I somehow need both?
What size skimmer would I need?
What media is best to use in the sump
and last of all
Power heads how many would you suggest and what size?
again I’m sorry that all this has been covered before.
many help and advice would be much appreciated
Thanks
Smithy
