My DIY 10G Sump Filtration System

My DIY 10G Sump Filtration Project

Time now to collect necessary measurements on sump tank, cabinet, display tank, and area around tank/cabinet, etc.

Going to be using 3/4" schedule 40 PVC tubing (found 1" to big, 1/2" just to small). After watching gobs of videos from YouTube and alike, I'm going to go with two overflow sections. Though one would probably suffice I figured two would be leaning on the safe side. Plus the extra incentives of having two like extra water flow if I so desire and I can take one down for cleaning and won't need to completely halt filtration.

This will be a drawn out project, not because I'm lazy, but I don't have much time these days. Between work, parenting, honey do lists , every chance I get (even if only for 15 minutes) I will continually work on this project.

With time permitting I'll update this journal whenever I get the chance and I think I will post pictures to a photo sharing site and paste a link so all can view - if you want that is.

Any suggestions for photo sharing sites, preferably free please?
