ronny Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Ofcourse you can. Did that with my last sump. Keep in mind tho you will need to have your ammonia spike to a higher level when just the sump is cycling so it can then handle the quantity of waste, not the level, the larger fully stocked tank will produce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
