IM30L with sump help

Murph710 · Nov 28, 2021

Anyone have this AIO with a sump? I have had this tank for a bit not setup and getting ready to do it but want to add a sump to it. I am putting it in a wall so I have endless options behind in another room (unfinished part of the basement) to do whatever I need but want ideas. I have never had a sump on a tank and not sure how to set that up.

I already have the tank and they aren’t cheap so if I can make it work I will.

Thanks

The easiest way would be with one of Innovative Marine's EXT tanks. I'm not sure you can drill the back of the glass on their AIO tanks for an overflow without cracking it (this was something a friend and i were discussing about the same thing with a fusion 25 Lagoon).

Is it possible to pump water out of the back chamber of the display tank up higher to another tank/sump to gravity feed back down to the back chamber of the display or is this just a crazy idea?

Just brainstorming ideas to save from another display tank purchase.

thanks
