Also it will then have to Y off to go into two separate chambers of balls. I read over the faq’s on plumbing and got a lot of mixed opinions. I just don’t want to have the wrong size hole drilled. Now to my DIY sump. I might have a good idea. It’s a 40G three foot tank. I want to use two five gallon buckets filled with bio balls. It seems like a lot but the fish are big and messy. My main concern is keeping the nitrates as low as possible between the faithful bi-weekly water changes. Most wet/dry’s with 4 gallons of media say they’re good for 150G. So by having two going, when the nitrates got too high, I could pull one bucket and clean em up while the other 5 gallons are still holding the bio load.
