i have a 36 gallon bow front currently running with a power filter (yuck). i want/need a sump. the problem is in my stand. and i really really really cant/dont want to replace my stand its really nice. the compartment under the tank has two doors going from the bottom of the tank to the floor. with two compartments sepperated by a load baring peice of wood. so i only have the space on one side or the other. currently i have two shelves on the right with all of my food/tests/other equiptment. and the left is empty except for the power stuff, coral life power center with day/night timer, and all the power cords to everything. each side is 12X12X30 inches. a pic at the bottom. i was thinking a 5.5 gallon glass tank from petco, but they are 16x8x10 inches 16 inches wide. i do know how to work with acrylic and i can build a sump if i have too, but i would prefer something store bought and worry free (of leaks) also that puts the top of my tank 60 inches from the floor........ any ideas or suggestions? and i have a 4 year old and a 1 year old so the sump has to be inside the stand
