What size was your sump made for?

 

[Oceanus_Systems]

how old is the iwaki pump and is it a wmd or md series and what size is the little giant and how old

 

[ofblong]

aquarium corals is it the hardcover or soft cover? where are you located again? that might be somethign cheaper to jsut send me.

 

[Emprr_angl]

its the japanese motor model. not sure how old, youll have to ask tzetela, hehe. i bought it from him and didnt end up using it.

ofblong, email sent. its hard cover. i'm in farmington hills

jimmythejewler, the sump wasnt made for any specific sized tank. some of those ratings are bs marketing schemes to sell products anyways. i designed the sump to fit with the stand i had also built. i see no reason why this sump couldnt be used on tanks up to 150gallons...the holes for the bulkheads might have to be modified to fit larger bulkheads for greater flow... it is made of acrylic and drilling through it is easy as pie. i planned on using 3/4" pipe on a 50gallon tank.

Chris,
A couple of questions for you
* What are the outside dimensions on the sump. I'm working with limited space under my tank
* How many total gallons can the sump hold? Need to know for "flood" planning purposes.
* It's hard to tell from the pic, but is there a refugium built into it also?

Thanks

is the sump still there, what are the dimensions

If the deal for the Iwaki falls through, I'll take it.
