a full siphon setup and covered sump makes more sense to me (having a sump) in a planted tank situation... wouldn't this be counterproductive? i thought the whole point of having an overflow sump was to oxygenate the water?Really the UG is more you don't need it and becomes just another maintenance item. overflows and sumps in planted tanks seem to be getting more popular, I love mine. to cut down on CO2 loss eliminate as much surface agitation as possible and cover the Sump. if you can make a full siphon setup for the overflow this will help immensely with CO2 loss.
