Setting up a 20long

[fastest302]

Hey guys I'm thinking of setting up another tank 20 long.. Miss my old 120 setup so want to do something small.. I'm thinking of getting it drilled for sump what sump options would I have for that setup?

 

[fastest302]

My 120 wasn't a great set up and hoping to learn from my mistakes and I want to get a real nice reef setup going

I would do another 20L under it as a sump.

I can't make a sump is there any forsale that size??

 

[JerSaint]

You could look for pre made or go baffle less using live rock to create "chambers". Also, I believe the CTARS May meeting is all about sumps, so you can learn a bunch about them!

I have a 10 gallon sump available I made, 2 chambers one for skimmer, rock, or whatever and the return side

I have a precision marine sump that is 20"x10"x12" (I will double check the dimensions) with 3 chambers.

$75 Never been used.

I will take one today and post it, it just needs a good vinegar scrub.

Hey Jason I believe this is gonna work..

Ok I checked and the dimensions are right. The only odd thing with this sump is it has a bulkhead opening with a drain elbow on the back of the sump. Look on the back left of the picture.

sounds good hopefully I can find somebody to drill the tank around my area..i have somebody in Plainville that will do it but that's a 2 hr drive for me

 

[Vaiodude]

Yea I have never drilled a tank, but I hear it is quite easy. Hopefully you can find someone.

I do it all the time and it's very simple as long as the glass in not tempered.

I never have luck on these types of things lol
