I have ALWAYS placed heaters in the sump, out of the display but with this new setup, the sump is on backorder while the tank is up and running. Of course, I have algae that will be cropping up soon and would like to begin fighting it but do not want to risk burning my gastropods! Would you advise purchasing them and placing them in the display or should I wait a week or two for the sump to arrive? Thanks SO much! Jillian
