I love the designs, but jeeez thats a lot of pricey bio-media! Maybe check into some DIY/dollar store bio-media (plastic army men, cut-up straws, pot scrubbies) & cut-up AC110 foam pieces to fill some space. I think nature likes chaos & more types of available BB surfaces, the better. Unless you just already have all that bio layin around...
Designed sump for 370g, how did I do??

Yeah I might just use pumice for the submerged stuff, althought I'm still not sure how much I'll need!!
I've done a more accurate drawing of the Mk2 plan on paper, and I'm still stuck on how big to make the chamber for bio media. Its going to be 42cm high and 48cm wide, so its only the length that will vary.
30cm = 60L media
40cm = 80L
50cm = 100L
60cm = 120L
I'm waiting to get a price for bulk bioballs from the lfs.
