Hey yall,
Been toying around with a couple of sump designs to send off to the builder and I am looking for some feedback on the one I am happiest with. Basically I wanted to do a rough sketch of the sump to communicate my needs to the builder and then let them handle the bracing, weir slots, lids, etc.
Water enters from the crashbox on the top left and will feed into a clarisea 5k. Water will then flow onto the skimmer section and finally the return zone. The Cryptic and Fuge will be fed off manifold for variable flow rates and then flow into the return zone from the right. The ATO resi is 7.5g and isolated in the back. All dosing and probes will dump directly into the return section to bypass skimmer.
Sump dimensions are 57"x27"x17" so about 100gal at max capacity if you deduct the ATO and 56gal normal operating capacity.
Skimmer Section 14"x20" - Minimum depth 6" , Max depth 12"
Cryptic & Fuge - 17gal each
ATO - 7.5 Gal
Merry Christmas,
Travis
