This is were it all started. No matter what size tank you have we can make something to fit it. All of our sumps are custom tailored to your specs. You won't have to worry if your protein skimmer or return pump will fit inside unlike standard issue generic sumps and wet dry filters.

If you have an idea of what you would like, we can create that, or you can draw from our years of experience and have us design one for your needs.

All we ask is that you provide us with the following information:

  • Size of space the sump will be placed in
  • Size of any equipment going inside of the sump(if you do not know, tell us the model and we can find out)
  • Number of overflows if any on your tank. (At least one, either internal or external in the tank is required)
  • Zip code for estimate on shipping

There are two standard "styles" but remember we build what you want so feel free to get creative, we enjoy the challenge.

The first is the dual overflow style. With this style, water enters through the left and right chambers and flows into the middle chamber for the return pump.

All refugium chambers include a black panel as a way to keep algae growth within the refugium chamber.

The second is the single overflow style, or for use where multiple drains are plumbed together to one spot. With this style, water flows from either the left or right through each chamber into the final return chamber for the return pump.
