    You can go with the HD-20 or HD-30 I think I would go with the HD-30 and the SQWD in the closed loop. after giving it some more thought, But just make sure that your overflow will keep up I tend to get carried away some times though. It is up to you .................... John

    I was just woundering... is there an advantage to have the CL system the primary sorce of water movement?
    I saw Scott's (szidls) CL system and that seems to be the case with his.
    So to make a 10% turn over rate there would be less needed to go through the sump... right? Would this be a good thing?

    10 times turn-over not 10% turn-over ;) and like I mentioned earlier "This total amount does not have to all go threw your sump", How ever you want to devide it up ;) ;) .............. John
