dnwolf Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 So , I'm thinking of creating a 10 gallon sump in my Red Sea max 130 . In it i would include a refugium and some prefilters so that i could breed cope pods while getting rid of nitrates. I don't wanna drill a hole into my tank so i really need a overflow box that doesn't require me to do just that . I heard live reef overflow box is ideal for the 130 but I cant find any local distributors online. However i did find the Monzter Overflow box which was available on Fresh'n'Marine and i thought maybe it was just i need. Anyone used this before? ( Is it over-flow proof ? A thumbs up or down ? ) Would it fit into the filtration compartment of my tank? Also anyone knows what size my sump should be so that i could fit in a refugium and maybe some extra filtration media like carbon and maybe some wool. I'll be connecting the refugium's return pump , which would be a Eheim 1000 to my chiller and back into the Main DT . Would that be ok?

SRC Member Clement Chen Posted December 26, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted December 26, 2013 They always say sump should be as big as u can fit. Probably can run ur return that way. What chiller r u using? Quote Clem's Clam Corner (Decommed) 60cm x 40cm x 30cm Tank Nano tank reboot v2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
