Adding a sump

[dyceskynes]

I have a 7 gallon minibow with a 110 fuge on back. I want to add a sump on there but not really sure how to go about doing it. Do I need to remove the 110 or can i keep it on back? Do you think a 10 gallon sump would be big enough or should I go bigger? Also I need a pump that will work well. I know these are questions that are asked a lot but I have not found anything that will really answer my question. If you have a topic that will answer it send it my way, thanks.

If you plan on adding a sump, then your 110 fuge won't be too important, as you can just convert the sump into a refugium as well.

 

If your tank is already in operation, and you can't drill the tank, then I think you would need an overflow box into your sump

I learn lots about sumps from this series of issues
