Thanks Ken for the inputs

Oh two more questions: how high should I maintain the inlet water level? And should the inlet pipe be above or submerged into the water?

can do alot with little room, doesnt leave a whole lot of room for water to come back down in a power failure.

yeah me personally dont like ato chambers under the tank its too hard filling them and theyre not all that big theres better uses for space as an external resevoir is simple enough.

with my 75g cube , beananimal coast to coast i have a 5g resevoir that lasts 4 days before filling, my 90g used 5g a day lol
