Sump dimensions are 27.75"x14"x16" with a water level at 10". So it will hold about 17 gallons with about 10 gallons freeboard which will be plenty.

Edwin maybe try catching the fish a few hours after the lights go out. Some fish get a bit lethargic then and may be easier to catch. Keep all lights out on the tank and in the room if possible and use a flash light for yourself to see.

+1. Weld-on basically chemically "melts" the acrylic together. The seams can actually be stronger than the acrylic itself. Pulling it apart you will likely break the acrylic before the seam. I would definitely cut it like you are thinking.

Got a little extra time today and took it to modify an acrylic sump that was laying around to fit my needs. The sump was too long to fit in the stand and the baffles were set lower than I would have liked. Here is the sump: I first cut the sump down by 2.25" After that I extended the...

Looking good Jose. Looks like she is happy to have a tank back.

Looking good!

In addition to making sure the Venturi is clear its not a bad idea to remove the pump and give it a good cleaning. I clean my skimmer pump and return pump about every 6 months. I usually disassemble the pumps cleaning the inside and the impeller and the run them for a little while in a...

Beautiful fish. I believe 4 of them made it to the US and 3 are in the north east. As mike said it is not so much that the fish is rare it's just rarely collected because of depths. This last group collected was 9 peppermint and a handful of narcosis angels which are really cool as well...

To test par you need a par meter. It's basically a probe that is submersible and you put it in your tank in different locations. The probe is attached to the par meter which gives you your readings.

Sounds like you had quite the trip. At least the tank and you guys made it back in one piece...lol. Can't wait to see things come together.

Very sorry for your loss. Maybe try uship.com people "bid" on shipping your load and you can usually find some pretty good deals. Hopefully you will be able to find something.

That's awesome. Great cause

+1. Works great

That should work out pretty well for a sump. And please post pictures of that thing on your jeep. I gotta see that....lol

Mines a toss up between the pearlberry and garf bonsai. Lost both in the storm. Really miss that pearlberry colony

How old is the system? Also some more specifics such as filtration, is there sand/rock, how big are the water changes etc. will also help.

I don't think you're crazy to use that as a sump. I would weigh everything out and see if you think it will work for you. In my opinion the more water volume the better. But on that note the more water volume the more salt you will use, the more rodi water you will use, and the equipment you...

I would bubble the water after running it through all stages besides the DI. Doing it this way you will not have to bubble as much water. RO systems have a pretty high rejection rate, usually 4:1. So to make 50 gallons of RODI water you would need to bubble about 200 gallons of water and...

They have a wholesale shop which you need an account for and also a retail shop which sells to the public.

Not sure where you're located but there is a place in Philly called everything plastic right by the WW bridge. They should have what you need
