Nice setup bro...sump tank only 2.5ft? A bit undersized in my opinion....

noted bro but I have a 4ft overhead full of K1 to supplement the sump. Sump also has plants for nitrate absorption. Everyday my pump is set on timer to discharge about 50litres of water which will trigger my auto top up valve to add on new water which is filtered by a "3-stage" tap water filter comprising of 1 x sediment and 2 x carbon.

as requested...

inlet to K1 OHF. Return pump water is split to K1 OHF and main tank

middle section of the K1 OHF. Notice the HiBlow-20? It feeds the 4 airstones in K1 OHF to churn the media

and finally the tail section where water overflows into outlet back to main tank

Hope that's a clear illustration of my filtration system
