Two questions as I progress through my frag tank build:
1. I'm planning on using ceramic media in the sump for my beneficial bacteria. Is there any benefit/drawback of using the 'plate' media versus the ceramic balls/blocks?
2. xcaret was kind enough to provide me with a 1/4 hp chiller. I'm having trouble finding any information on it, and it seems like it will need its own pump. Is there a general rule of thumb for how much flow each size of chiller needs, or will this just need to be something I tinker around with?
Thanks!
