So I got a good price on a 125 gallon tank had originally planned to use it for my DT, but it's just to beat up and scratched, So I decided to use that for a sump fuge setup in the basement. Got it all set up and put in my baffles, decided I wanted to get that running water though just to get that cycled since I can't start on my DT build just yet, I'm also impatient!
Anyway I hooked up my smaller external pump last night to get water flowing and threw a few rocks in to check how it flowed and I'm thinking I may have set up my first baffle incorrectly since the water is following way over, and I'm not really getting a good flow through the refugium, I'm realizing I probably should have gone with a gap under and a small wall to hold sand in place.
Let me know what you guys think would be the best thing to do here, I'm thinking take that baffle out and lift it a inch or so for water to travel under then use a 3" piece to hold sand bed in place.
