Hey All,

I am currently buying bits to convert a Juwel Rio 125 into a marine tank with 25l sump underneath, not got to much done yet but as ive found the guides posted by others a massive help i thought i would do the same.

Heres my current setup, freshwater with 21 fish currently...

All i have done so far is move the shelf higher in the cabinet...

And installed a light (spare at bottom of pic) so i can see everything once the sump arrives...

I have ordered a 25ltr 18'x10'x10' Sump to fit (£29) under the cabinet which should arrive over next few days, i have also ordered a few diamond drill bits for drilling the tank, although i cannot make up my mind whether to drill the bottom or side... Id prefer to do the bottom but i would not be adding a full length wier... any suggestions or advice either way???
