sump build

[paul]

i just built a stand for my 125 and now trying to turn my 36x18x21 tank into a sump. could someone help with any suggestions or direct me to some ideas.

here is one way to do it - i wouldnt use a jig saw for cutting the acrylic tho. you can have it cut to size by the acrylic shop or use a table saw with a plywood finishing blade to cut it yourself

I just had this sump made a week ago for my 40 Gallon Breeder (L36"XW18"XH16"). It was constructed out of 1/4" acrylic and is my own custom design. The Sump outside dimensions 23"X16"X13.5". Feel free to download it and modify it how ever you'd like. I also have the Google Sketch Up Model if you'd like to play with it.
