Conecting two tanks together wia bulkhead

SputnikNYC · 09/26/2015, 04:29 PM

My main sump is 20g and consists of three chambers, drain > refugium > return.

I would like to add another tank, smaller, around 10g just to use it for drain and skimmer and feed the water to my 20g sump in the old drain chamber...

Any ideas on how to implement this best, or is it even possible?

Something like this
