I'm pretty happy with my trigger ruby 36. That tideline looks nice. The 7 inch socks would have been nice. Darn. Wish I had seen that when I was buying.

Have you looked at Fiji Cube sumps? From what I understand, the owner, Will, will work with you and help make something custom too.

My friend, and I use that term loosely

Love my fijicube sump and overflow!

Thegoodson · Feb 14, 2019

So I think in going with that bashsea 36in that is 18 wide

I want to run refug 1st cause it would be the bigger area doing it mostly for pods and a little for nutrients control

From what I read skimmer after shouldn't be a big deal

I reached out to everyone on here trying to see if they can make there sump 22 in wide and no reply yet

I have the 36 trigger elite, built to last, and they have top rimms that keep water from splashing out over the sides, and mine has a overfill holes that keep certain sections from floodine

Reviving this thread for your opinion / review on the Fiji sump? How'd it work out what do you like or wish was different? Any info is helpful. Thanks!

If it turned out anything like mine, he should be pleased.

Mine has been running for months with no issues and dead quiet. I will use their stuff on every build from now on.

life reef you cant go wrong jeff will help you out

GardenReef · Jun 13, 2019

Paul17. thanks for the reply and reminder about lifereef. Really interested in the Fiji.

dantimdad. - good to hear the strong support you have for it still.

Appreciate both replies! Im tired of fiddling with the back section of my red sea 130 and am not ready for a larger tank yet so adding a sump is a way to keep patient on that next build. Cheers!!
