Sump needed

[kevin_kramer]

Hello, I have been away form the hobby for a few years and I am in the process of setting up my tank. I am looking for a acrylic sump 30-36 long 12-16 wide 16-18 high. If any one has one sitting around please let me know.

I would also be able to use some 3/8-1/2 acrylic. I have lost my list of sources.

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Keven,

Welcome back to the hobby. Talk to Paul at First Class Aquatics, he would be able to sell you some acrylic or build you a custom sump. www.firstclassaquatics.com/

Does it have to be acrylic, if not i might have one around those dimensions.

I'm picking up a sump from Paul this weekend. I'm in Amherst if you'd like to take a look at his work...

84chris, I really want acrylic. I do not want glass because I am going to use an external pump. I have tried the rubbermade tubs before and they are to weak and do not hold bulkhead fittings all that well.

Anaelitz, Thanks for the offer, can you post some pictures? I am debating on the size. I have a AGA 120 48x24x24 tank. I am going to use my AquaC 180 skimmer and I want to put it in the sump. The doors on my stand are 15" wide. If I want the sump removable I think that the widest I can go is 14". If I do not want to be able to remove it then I can go wider.

I see that you have a 120 also with a 40 gal sump. Can you post pictures of your sump arrangement?
