Title: DIY Sump
Post by: ohioreef on November 23, 2020, 22:37:37

Is there anyone in the club building custom acrylic sumps? I have a wet/dry for under my corner tank that I could probably make work, but I’d prefer to find someone to build a custom sump.

Not what you’re looking for - but I bought a blemished sump from Trigger Systems for my last sump and have been super happy with it. They’ll even give you a deal on an ATO container with them (at least they did for me). Plus then you keep the resale value down the line because they’re a well known brand with a lifetime warranty (pretty sure).

Thanks for the info. I’ll take a look at those. I’m not against buying some thing commercial.

I got the Sapphire 39. Have been really happy with it so far. Just don’t run a refugium but it’s nice to have the option.
