Good afternoon everyone!
I am building a small fish rack to breed (3) different types of African Cichlids. I figure I would start small and gradually work my way up. I will have (3) 40 gallon tanks on the bottom, (3) 29's in the middle, and a combination of (6) 29 longs and (3) 10 gallon tanks at the top level. I currently have most of the tanks and am running a heater, and sponge filter in each one. I am using separate boh filters for the larger 29 and 40 tanks. I have already ordered a piston air pump to handle up to 30 outlets....or so it says. I would like to build a sump, but some of my tanks are tempered. Is there a way to design a sump so that I do not have to drill tanks? I am only familiar with the overflow sump systems. Please let me know your thoughts so that I can centralize my heating and filtration for my tanks.
