Afternoon
Still waiting to pay of my tax bill before I embark on another tank related project.
But in the meantime I am reading researching and designing possible builds.
I ran across an article about moving bed filters, and I really want to try it out.
I would like to build a large one in a sump. There are a few on YouTube.
Basic questions focus around co2 injection, which I have read does work well with sumps. But would be curious if there is a workaround.
Next would be plumbing the sump.
I had an idea about building a tank with the rear glass slightly lower and recessed than the others, and have the water run off that into a collection tray below that feeds into the sump. Then pump out to a spray bar plumbed through the bottom.
Would this work?
Any foreseeable obstacles?
I want to give it a try on a small 25l tank (350mm x 300mm x 200mm)
Anyone had any stab at a moving bed filter?
Cheers
