Reef Sanctuary - View Single Post - Quick newbie sump plumbing question...

I'm with Lynn on this one. I have my tank draining into the Sump but I have a small amount "Teed" off to feed the fuge which then feeds via gravity into the main sump/return areas. This way the skimmer AND the Fuge get freshly "tainted" (aka un-filtered) water.

with a SW set up there is one basic fundamental rule that we ALL should follow
When in doubt... wait it out. This means take it slow and let the tank "develop" and don't rush it. Time is your friend
