There is a chance that I might be getting a 55G tank from a friend of a friend for free. I can't run the new tank without getting rid of one of the other tanks (no room). I was thinking of moving everything from the 20G SW tank into the 55G and putting the 20G to use as a sump. I have a spot I think I can hide it but it will be tight. I was wondering about a few things if I do undertake this.
1) Best practices for moving stuff from one tank to the other?
2) How soon after the move to I need to upgrade the filter and alike if I don't increase bioload and just tank size at first?
3) How would I use the 20G as a sump?
4) Best way to plumb the sump? (the way I am thinking of setting it up they would be about 2-3' apart)
5) (the eternal question) should I upgrade to MH?
I know john I should read the helpful articles. LOL J/K
Thanks guys
