10 gal sump or refugium?

sruiz · 05/10/2007, 12:29 PM

I know I should have a 25 or 30 for my 55 gallon, but i have a 10 gallon sitting and I plan on putting it to use. Anyone have some cool ideas on what could be done with a 10 gallon?

You could use it as a sump but it would be a bit small, what i would do is get a 25-30 gallon for a sump, and maybe plumb the 10 gallon as a fuge.

you're right with a tank this small it is only right to make it a refugium.
