Sump Size Question

[Jcm412]

I found a Tideline 36 sump for sale used. However, I can't find anywhere that it say what size aquarium it will work up to. What are your thoughts?

There's no size it will work up to. That sump is 41.7 gallons so personally I would only get a bigger one if your tank is over around 200 gallons. Of course the bigger the better though. If you can fit a huge sump then thats your best bet most times, the extra water volume and space for equipment/fuge is great to have.

I am using the exact tideline 36. Display is 48"L x 23"W x 21"H (90 gallon). Actual water volume for this 36 is about 25~30 ish gallon, and IMO the sump is on the large side for my tank.

Oh yeah, I forget to add that, thank you very much! Since the sump is only filled a few inches instead of full its not the full 40 gallons
