Hi all.
This is a bit anti-climatic but Ive got this drawing I made of a diy sump under a 450 liter tank. Care to rate it?

All measurements are in mm!
Sump:
380Lx830Wx400H glass is 8mm

So..32mm herbie overflow, 24mm return piping.
Reefmat 500 & deltec 600i skimmer in the main chamber
Jebao mdc 8000 in the return chamber
(pump dimensions 196Lx104Wx163H)

I set the baffle height aiming for the reefmat and skimmer sweet spot.
Am i missing something here?

Where will temp probe and heater go? I’m assuming you don’t want temp probe in the same area as the heater.

Good call.
Maybe temp probe in the main chamber, behind the rollermat. Heater in the other end of that chamber?
Heater really should not be in a chaþber with fluctuating water level right?
