New to the forum and I am in the process of setting up a new Reef tank for the first time in about 10 years. I know many things have changed and wanted to get some advice on initial set-up. Here is what I am thinking of doing.
29-40 Gallon tank
I want my filtration to be based on the LR and LS in the tank and then a refugium/sump with chaeto, LR and LS. Maybe a skimmer?
My biggest questions are; what size sump should I get, and how do you figure out the flow rates? Should I drill the tank? If so where and how big? Should I make an overflow in the tank?
Hopefully you can see where I am going here.
Any help would be great!!
