custom sump

it's pretty simple and cheap to build,
just go to petsmart or petco get the cheap glass tank at the size you want. then design or copy a design you want. get sum decent sized acrylic for the baffles you can use a dremel or a saw to cut it. and get a lot of aquarium safe silicone (I prefer the small tubes because you can squeeze more out) and some super glue, glue the acrylic to the glass and then apply silicone and work outside in and wait two days then your done!
there's some good videos on YouTube.
 
the only standard tanks that will work is a 20 long and a 29 which is just a little taller. i am looking for somethin with a footprint of 30x17 and will have a sump. i built a sump out of a 40 breeder but that will not fit under my cube. i dont want to go through building a tank for the sump hence why i am asking of people who build them from start to finish
