Looking for a sump / refugium

[BrokenSpoke]

I have your basic stand for a 75 gallon tank. Double doors with a center brace in the front and a center brace in the back. So, I am wondering if anyone has a sump with a refucium for sale that I can slip into this stand without removing the tank or the center brace. Really looking for something 20+ gallon in size.

what are the dimensions you are looking for? I remember Hammbone has a Precision Marine 24" reservoir/sump 24" long x 11.5" wide x 14" tall. I believe He was asking too much so I passed on it but it might be perfect for you. Im pretty suer he still has it.

Depends on your budget all of my freinds bought cheap tanks and bought acrylic from homedepot and added the baffles themselves. Using aquarium safe silicon.

Thats the route im taking. you can build 6 sumps for the price of one acrylic sump/refugium with the exact same results

I may take this route also. I know I can use a 20G long and put my own baffles in it. I just thought I would throw it out there and see if anyone had something already made up for a price that I wanted to pay.

make sure you try the 20L first before working on it, as I have the same stand and could not fit it. I went with a 15 I think

I have a 20 L that has been made into a sump. I think the baffles should be re glued because it was done with silicone but at any rate 20 bux if you are interested.

I've got a 20L and a 20T that I was giving away for free on craigslist and had no shows...

I have a 20 gallon acrylic sump $50

You're right. I mocked up a 20L and it won't fit

would acrylic stick with a glass tank?

I have acrylic baffles in a 20 long sump. You sandwich the baffles with a nice thick band of silicone and it's in there for good.

+1 I have a 20T with acrylic baffels siliconed in!

I built a custom sump for my standard 75 gallon stand.
It is the absolute largest you could build & still have it fit thru the doors.

It is about 13 gallons & made from acrylic.

I'll try to take a picture of it. If you want it, I'll give it to you for free ( however I always accept beer ;-)

Bummer is I'm all the way in Longmont.

Interesting.....

I offer to give something away for free and get no responses.

Maybe if I start a new thread "Custom acrylic sum for 75 Gallon, only $50" I'd sell it in a couple of hours.

boggles the mind!

Put it up for sale as part of a system with a bold WILL NOT PART. Someone will offer to buy just the sump

Sorry, I completely forgot about this thread. Because of the size of my skimmer and such I ended up buying a 20G high and putting in a glass baffle. I appreciate the offer though.
