I recently bought a 75 gallon tank with a stand from petsmart and want to turn into a saltwater aquarium with my dad. I have a few questions regarding a sump. Sorry if I sound like a noob, but it's so much information.
1) The obvious, should I get get/ make a sump? or would a canister filer suffice?
2) The tank currently has no water in it. Should I drill a hole into it while I have a chance or buy an overflow?
3) what size tank should I use for the sump?
4) Would it be better to buy or build a sump?
I'm sure I have a few more questions but none are coming to mind, so feel free to give me some expert advice. Again I apologize for sounding so nooby. I really love how saltwater tanks look and I just want to do it right.
Regards,
Matt
