Whoops. Must not have read that the first time thoroughly! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is what I got going on so far. Thoughts? Braces on the floor or under? Under would be an issue as I live in an apartment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, Tank, cut glass, labor and installation to whatever I want to configure (which I might have a general idea as to how). Hmm. At that point would 20 gallons be enough?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I actually called PetCO and apparently missed the sale by a few days .   I went to an aquatics store where the people do sumps custom made for about $70-100 depending on the size. I was quoted $70ish for a 20 gallon. Not sure if that is considered expensive? I don't seeing it being a difficult...

Awesome, thank you!

Hmm. I tested the sump the other day and some leaks in it. I could theoretically just take the "stages" and start over. Might be difficult but worth the effort. Thank you for your help!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Would I need to change around the "stages" of water flow to benefit more for freshwater? Sorry, used to canister setups where I know water will flow. The video helped with some of the broad picture of what I can do but the idea of the getting everything to piece together without overflowing my...

Any ideas as to what kind of plants that would work well? I think the sump is roughly 20 ish gallons give or take a few. It looks like a saltwater sump but I guess I could use the same concept for freshwater? Thank you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sump Questions Hello all!   I recently just bought a 90 gallon aquarium with a over flow system, stand, 2 different canopies, canister filter, and a 20 gallon acrylic sump tank. I am very new to using a sump tank for filtration and have no idea where to start. I am up for the challenge and just...

I posted a question in regards to a similar matter such as this conversation which are sump tanks. Not really got any answers from the post. I have a 20 gallon sump tank. Would this be considered overkill for a 90 gallon tank? I planned on using sponges since they worked for me in other tanks...

Can anyone suggest ideas?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  Oy... Deep inside I am saying you're wrong and its only because I know I can't keep this guy in a 75gal... S/he will grow to be a beautiful fish though so its tempting! Sad part of it is? The LFS has this one labeled as a a Eartheater! Ugh...     Thank you!

Hello group,   It has been awhile! Hope all is going well in fishforums.   I was hoping to see if anyone could classify this cichlid. I believe this is a type of a Earth-eater possibly redhead? I have searched all over the net to find a picture similar to this feller here but had no such luck...
