    Unhappy WTB Sump for Refugium

    Hello,
    After 2 days I see that my wet/dry that was given to me is leaking... very slowly but leaking...
    So I need a 1' wide by 29.5" long and 18" tall sump with the 3 spaces for skimmer, refugium and return.
    Let me know via PM or Txt me please.

    Sorry Custom sump...
    I agree to do that but for a sump that no one will see I don't see the case of spending more than 3 bills for this.

    I always look at everyone's sumps when I see a new tank... it's like going up to a nice car and not looking under the hood. a good sump will save you many headaches.... especially one that will fit all your equipment and future equipment.

    here's my mess of a sump don't be scared. I'm about to switch up to a trigger system because I need a bigger skimmer area and a separate refugium.

    Yeah! I understand! My tank it's a 90 gal corner tank, so it's a very tricky situation I have. A 29"X12"X16 is almost 200 dlls! And tha'ts what I need. I could get a 29 gal tank (glass) and I will install the baffles myself and save some money $30 tank, 20 baffles, 10 silicon.... it's for a FOWLR tank but I NEED Macro algae for the nitrates because I will be feeding heavy. Louis with Elegant Reef is quoting me a L shape sump! that would be perfect!! plenty of space and perfect shape... but I know that puppy will be like 4bills! LOL. At this moment my priority is to get macro algae somewhere within the system.

    This is what I need....

    DIY is definitely the way to go. Don't be scared, it's SUPER easy. Just plan it out right to make sure all your equipment fits. Since you already have a sump, just copy that design.
