Is your sump in your basement and tank on the first floor? If so that's so rad.

I got a few pictures saved online from back in the day. Most won't fit your application directly but I'm posting what I got in hopes others might find them useful. If I find more I'll post them but I know I didn't keep that many.

I wish I took pictures of everything I built but I didn't, some stuff was really crazy.

My sump in it's current state



Water enters behind the skimmer, overflows through the socks, under the baffle, past the heaters, and over the last baffle ( under center support ) into the return area





Chaeto tank drains to return section



Reactors and chiller/UV go back to skimmer section to be re-filtered
