Hey everyone this is my first post! I am making a reef tank with 3 tiers and its about 350 gallons. I have made a sump for the bottom out of three different tanks one is a 35 gallon type A sump, the next is a 30 gallon refugium with skimmer and the third is a half refugium 20 gallon. My question is is this sump system that i have big enough and is this a good idea to put 3 tanks like this instead of one big sump. Its expensive to buy one large like 55 gallon sump. I had all these tanks lying around so i just went ahead and used them.
Thanks! |

I'm not sure but I do know the more complicated something is the more there is that can go wrong. Any of the 3 tanks has an issue that could have horrible consequences for everything.
