Dreaming again...thought on 2 sump vs 1 large one?

[Devaji]

OK so I am just dreaming here....hey we gotta right.

I have wanted a FOWLR for years some day it will happen I am thinking of a custom tank from joe at glass cages the 310 96x30x24.

tank will focus on angels, butterflies a cpl tangs puffer fish with a few wrasses in the mix, anyway as I just dream this up I was thinking 2 of the fiji cube advanced or trigger 36 or 44" sumps would be nice. have 2 overflows going one each going it to a sump.

of course the cheaper option would be DIY 40br sumps thank is an option too. one would be a huge cheato or ATS the other would be big skimmer.
IDK just thinking out load here.

I am sure with a small(ish) FOWLR like a 310 I could get away with one 44" sump.

Sure, why not. The only caveat is that you'd probably want both interconnected to share the water volume.

My thoughts we they would share the same water but not be connect. That would be a pain and slow more points of failure.

I was thinking run one sump off of each overflow.
might be over kill but just a thought.
