Sumps for larger tanks

[douglass]

Does anybody have pictures of a glass 125gal being used as a sump?

Ditto: 180large... We use a 100 gallon Rubbermaid... We can drain 15-20 gallons of water during a water change... system does not even know the difference, no need to shut off any main return pumps. We just slowly drip freshly mixed salt-sea water back into the system.. no need to worry about water temp matching.. water drips in slowly via micro-valve and float.. works great! We also run skimmer externally and drain right into stock tank... just put a sponge pad down over some flat floss set over a drip plate... very simple!!
