external pump and rubbermaid sump

[kentrob11]

on the closed look I used the smaller black bulkheads. REMEMBER! Make sure you paint the inside of the hole you drill black or it will show through on the inside and look like crap...

Here's a better pic....The water surface is almost glassy with 1200GPH going through it and ZERO microbubbles....The bottom pic is of the carbon canisters I filled today. I didn't turn the pump off to take the pic! Water flows through like a charm without raising the water level at all. I still have to install the float switch and auto top off.....

Kent, would you mind explaining how your sump works? where is the water coming in? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
