    ok ok,

    here i am in a bit of a pickle. as stated in another thread, i was looking into building my own sump/fuge. however whilst at another fish store that i dont use so much, i enquired about a sump and he presented to me a 4 chamber,(36") 3 footer!!! then to top that he said i could have it for £60 which i think is an absolute steal!!!although it comes with sponge filters/bio balls/ i know that wont be enough filtration. THE MORAL OF THIS STORY?? WHAT WOULD YOU GUYS SUGGEST IS THE BEST FILTRATION IN A SUMP?REMEMBER IT DOES HAVE 4 CHAMBERS,ALL EQUAL LENGTH... I was thinking of possibly incorperating a fuge area, but may add that seperatly at a later date....

    thanks guys and gals

    MUCH APPRECIATED....;D
