HELP!!! My sump is leaking!!!

Well now that I don't need to knock a hole in my sump for an external pump, I might not. I don't need to create the space.

Here's two examples in pictures of what I might do.

Well it looks like I'll not bother with drilling my sump. Flex pvc will work just as good. Today I had a chance to work on my tank projects and removed the gum that had gotten into the carpet in my fish room. Then I filled the tank, and added a bunch of salt. When I get the right s.g. I'll finally get the liverock back in.

I'm getting back into reefing again!

I'm ready to fix my sump. First I need to clean it. Then I need to know how big of a bead to put on the joints.

Acrylic, are you out there?

Lunchbucket, I've had quite a few hangups with it--in trying to plan upgrades before I set it up again. I decided to wait to hard plumb the system until I build the reef-ready tank.

I've started my internship at nursing school so that's the priority right now. I'll be working on finally fixing the darn thing when I get escapes of time to go to the shop.
