hello everyone,
I am very new to this forum and to reef aquariums.

I was given a 40 gallon truvu acrylic and a 29 gallon tru vu acrylic. in the 40 i have 40 pounds of live rock and some fish. What i want to do is use the 29 gallon right behind and at the same level as a refugium or just a sump to get the heater and protein skimmer out of the way.

How do you suggest i get water transfer from one tank to the other?

I was going to use my magnum 350 to feed the 29 and a 350gph odyssea powerhead to return. Do you think it would work? if not do you have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to AC! I would start a thread in our SW Forums where more folks will see it and be able to help. Would drilling and connecting the tanks thru bulkheads be an option?
