Just finished building my sump for my new build. Big thanks to Ace for all the helpful advise!
It's a 5' x 2' x 18"H with a 2' x 2' fuge section and 1' x 2' Xenia fuge section. It will be used to house livestock and provide filtration for my frag system while the main build is underway.

Thanks folks! I'm excited. I built the sump to "trap" myself into a marineland dd 300 or a dsa 220. It won't fit under anything smaller :).
@ James, anytime bro. Just give me a buzz.

@ James, anytime bro. Just give me a buzz.
Tuan.... shhhhh... I do believe that is the intent. :)
Go for the 300, why settle for a small tank like a 220?

Yea, there's also an oyster chip on the inside glass. I just don't trust it with that much water pressure.
