yellows Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Just wondering is it possible to hook 3 x 4 foot tanks up to a sump set up if the bottom tank is only 230mm off the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mq_camo Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Do you have room for a sump behind the tanks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mq_camo Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 As long as the overflow exit is below the overflow I can't see why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickm986 Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) yes, but I would make sure the return pipework (exiting tank to entering sump) has its own pipe work (ie not sharing with above tanks -back pressure etc) and its diameter is larger than what you would normally use (id say minimum 32mm) - this is only for the bottom tank HTH and makes sense Edited September 1, 2013 by nickm986 added extra info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
