Changing wet/dry to fuge

[Gilbert]

I would like to change up my wet/dry to a fuge but i dont have any clue of how to do it or if its even worth trying. the sump isn't that big i think the dimensions are 11"x18"x14". but i guess it cant hurt to ask for other's opinion.
this is what the wet/dry looks like.

that is a fairly simple fix by adding a baffle on the right side of the blue sponge. make it the height you want your fuge level to be. then just remove the tower of bioballs in the center add sand to the level you want. that is assuming that the far right end is the retun end

man i would have never thought about that
what benefits would i get by changing it to a fuge?

[Texreefer]

increased pod population, additional nutrient export, system stability

or better yet buy this

and plumb it inline as a stand alone display fuge

man if i had more money and wasnt going to college i'd buy it

The changes Mike suggested above would work well and are easy to do. You and your aquarium inhabitants will be much happier if you make the switch to the fuge.

(Non mechanical person here)- What is a baffle?

[Texreefer]

it is just a physical barrier to keep water in place and keep bubbles from being drawn into the return pump
