hello all, I have a 50 gallon tank not setup and I want to have a sump system. I will silicone a piece of plexiglass in one corner and make slits in it at the top so all my water flow comes off the top. How do you get the water to your sump? I would like to cut a hole in the corner of the tank to make a gravity flow, but if I use a open container sump (10 gallon aquarium) won't it overflow? If I pump it down to the sump I will still have this same problem. What do you suggest? I want to use a skimmer that sets in the sump so I can just have a sump pump that pushes through the skimmer and back up to the tank. Please help me with a diagram or anything. I'm trying to get all this stuff figured out before I start cycling my tank. thanks greg
