need fuge ideas

[redbeene420]

im currently upgrading my fuge to a 29 gal.....beacause of the new ams skimmer im buying. needs some ideas. i would like to have live rock in 1 section.....skimmer in another.....macro algea section and a return section. i need a few ideas on a filter sock or something for the incoming water going to the fuge......my ams skimmer will need a area anbout 16 by 12.....so im limited on space...... i wouldnt mind getting a longer tank for the fuge. but the 29 is the biggest i have please if you have any ideas, diagrams or spare parts to donate i would be really thankfull

I don't think you have enough room in a 29 gallon to do all that you want to do. I would suggest skip the live rock section, make the skimmer section on, put a baffle at the 16 inch mark for your skimmer , which should leve you with aprox 14 inches for your return section. This does not leave you with much area for evaporation though. If you shrink the return section to make room for a fuge, you will have very little evap area in the tank.

A 29 is not enough for all you want to do....I would relocate that fuge elsewhere.
