Hello

I'm in the process of a new build! Just got my custom 400 gallon aquarium. Any recommendations on how big a sump i should use? Which are the best sumps out there? Thank you for the help!

Here is a pic of the new aquarium. Enjoy!

That is sexy!

Might as well get a custom sump.

I'd recommend making one out of a smaller fish tank. I custom made mine and put the channels where I wanted and at 1/3rd the cost. I'm not sure if you have a basement or not but if so I highly recommend pluming it through the floor too. No more working in tight quarters and listening to pumps.

Great looking set up! I just purchased an Icecap sump and it seems pretty impressive to say the least. I would go that route and purchased the biggest model they offer if you decide not to go custom.

Good luck!

Nice!! Who built the tank if you don't mind me asking? For a sump both elite aquatics and synergy reef make great products, I would look into them.

Synergy Reef, @mixer911, makes some awesome looking ones.

Beautiful tank! I went with Synergy Reef for my sump. They also built my ATO container.
