Hi all, I've been lurking on this site for a while learning what I can while planning my setup.
I was hoping I could get some feedback on what I've done thus far.
Tank---38x20x20 inches
-65.8 gal
-total operating water vol with sump appx. 89.2 gal
-overflow box and drain on back left, return on the right/w powerhead
Stand---38x20x30 (custom, can accommodate sump size)
Sump---36x15x16
-drain stage 12x14.5
-refugium 12.25x14.5
-return stage 8x14.5
I was aiming for around 1200 gph to flow through the tank but i'm not sure if I will blast corals and fish too much. (about 18x tank vol. per hr.)
Not sure which size drain hole and return hole to accommodate this flow.
Drain 1", return 1"??
Was thinking mag 12 return pump that has 1130 gph at 4' head?
(would like least amount of sound as possible)
Also not sure if this flow will create crazy bubbles.
Sump has 2x 1" drains
TYIA for any advice. :D
