FS: Soupy's Sanford & Son Style Sump Set-Up

SoupySteve

Reefer Dadness
No sump for now on Soupy's 110!

The overflow (SOS) is 3+ years old - rated at 800 gph max. I never got around to modding it with a durso or whatever they are called b/c the cheap lil' silencer that came with it did a good enough job.
The return pump is a RIO 2500. I think its max flow is 900 gph - maybe 800gph?
The SCWD is 2.5 years old. I have had to do the ol' vinegar treatment to it ONCE before to get its guts a spinnin' again.
There's enough of the spa hose that is the correct size here to get you going.
When I last used this stuff, I had the 30g Long set-up behind my 55 - so the pump was only at like 1', I got VEEERY nice flow even with the SCWD!
I took a picture just so you could see that the stuff is USED - but I can't add anymore pics to RC atm - so I can e-mail pics to anyone who is interested.
I may be able to scrounge up some more of the RIO's mounting hardware - but don't hold your breath!
I paid retail for all three of the main components - 90 for overflow, 40 for pump, and 45 for SCWD - but hey, just cause I spent too much doesn't mean I expect you to...
How's $75 in cash or make offer for anything reef-related in trade? I need salt, new bulbs, frags, livestock?, mangroves, i-pods (even the 1g kind), an upgrade from my 18w PC for my 5.5 g pico, someone make me an offer so I can take this outta my kitchen, alright?!?

All you do is supply the reservior of your own size and shape...
