Hi there, what model of eheim universal pump are you using? my betta barracks (to be) is 7foot tall but im concerned that the pumps which can deliver water this high are too powerful (1100litre+ per hour) that its going to be too much water pumping into each compartment. my barracks is basically the same design as yours :) so what would you recommend? I can see yours is a model of the universal pump but the eheim website says the deliver hight is <4ft is it good enough or should i get a compact?

@Monkies8utt the UV lamp goes AFTER the sump filter (not before it) as the dirty water from the tanks provides beneficial bacterial cultures that support the biological filtration system. Water coming out of the sump filter must then be sterilized (by the UV lamp) before it goes into the betta tanks. :)

Was wondering where the VU Lamp was placed?
how big is the sumpf? is a 80 cm tank or will a smaller thank do to?

@scentopink the sump tank i used was around 75 litres but you can use larger or smaller depending on your needs.

Hi there great work and video, I was just wondering.. i cannot build this sump filter you built, so i was wondering if the aqueon proflex sump filter model 1 would work for this?

@s2ktuner thanks! as for your question: possibly... I'm just not familiar with that model so as long as it has a good capacity and a powerful pump it should be OK. :)

@s2ktuner it is a bit of work to build but much easier to maintain than 30 separate jars - a dripsystem is a huge time-saver! :)
