Great news!! Yesterday I finished building my DIY sump! Well just enough to make is work. It's a ten gallon tank. I'm currently have a few problems.

1) I don't really know what to add.
I have some LOTS of Ogo plants and LR rubble. Should I use a crate to make it a wet/dry filter?

2) How do I get the bubbles to stop coming into the main tank.

3) The return pump is about 1,200 gallons and it seems to output some heat.
Should I lower the temperature of my heater to make it lower?

4) Should I put my heater/what should I put in the sump?

5) What can I use to clean the debris without using filter media?
I've heard that it will raise your nitrates.

6) How can I get the sections without using glass?

P.S. I don't have any fish. It's not on. I'm planning on replacing the tubing with PVC.
