Interesting using the aio chambers with the small bump. This looks very practical but what about water lines and potential splashing noise? Is the water from the refugium going to be the same as the return? Same for the drain to refugium.hello, so i have a fluval evo but would like to upgrade. im looking into a fijicube rimless overflow that is predrilled and ive been toying with the idea of using the evo as a sump for this, im not an expert and would like some help with a design, this is what ive come up with im not surewhat size pump to use for the return or whether the stock evo chamber will be able to keep up.
ok that makes sense to me could split like this possibly help? this might be something i have to try to figure out.
well the difference is nearly 600$ so if i can rig my own setup i will, im a car guy i like to figure things out.
If you're going to use the tank, just cut the AIO chamber out and make your own baffle system. Those 3 tiny chambers are doing nothing for you, limiting you to that design/layout, and forcing an additional pump on you. It's only held in there by Silicone I think (I have the Fluval Flex 123/32.5 and it's definitely only siliconed in).ok that makes sense to me could split like this possibly help? this might be something i have to try to figure out.
Yea for me it’s been a learn as you go with sump designs. I’ve made a few and a couple aio im still learning something new each time. You may need to punch holes in your AiO to manipulate the water levels to go with what what @FishOkay mentioned earlierok that makes sense to me could split like this possibly help? this might be something i have to try to figure out.
