new sump

[nightfire]

hey guys i just got home with my new soon to be sump/fuge a 29 gallon tank....got it from fidel which has some nice frags...love the pink zoas anyways guys do any of ya have advice on the most effective ways i could form this sump/fuge? the way i have my 10g one is 3 chambers, the first is the skimmer/intake area....2nd is the return area and the 3rd being the fuge with of course the drain line feeding both the intake and fuge......this way works great in my 10 as far as i see though before i set it up that way i thought i'd ask a few of ya that have had a few different ways of setting them up in the past....thanks guys and again fidel thanks

I'm about to take on the same project. Right now I'm planning two chambers (intake/skimmer and return). I have a spare 10g that i'm planning to turn into a remote fuge that drains into the return section of the 29g. I'm not sure yet as to the dimentions of the skimmer section (l x w) and the return section depth. It's going on a 90g that I just purchased. I'll be following along....

To me this is an AWESOME sump design. Doesn't look to hard to build, looks to maximize utility and effectiveness. I am going to make something like it for my next project. Oh, and to the original maker, great job, two thumbs up!
