So I want to do a 75g DT with a 75g DT sump for macro algae but I'm not sure how I should build the stand or how to drill the top tank.
So right now my sump has two holes drilled into on one of the side panels. One is up toward the top in the middle and one is towards the bottom. Now I was thinking of having it drain onto a plate that flows into two filter sock the and have the return pump sit underneath the plate that the water comes in on. Then the rest of the 75g will be a display for macro algae like cheado, dragons breath and other kinds.
So should I design the tank stand almost like a peninsula style and just drill the new 75g on the sides with like a shadow overflow box? So the stand would look kinda like an L with the part with the filter socks and pump covered and leave the rest open. Or just do the back and have the stand be partially open for the algae to be seen somewhat like an entertainment center
Idk I'm used to freshwater stands lol so I am really struggling with this design
