I thought you meant a storage bin as an actual sump. Is it sitting in an acrylic tank

Oh sorry no not a bin the storage drawers.
No that's an old glass tank that I had sitting around. It works good

No prob. If I had a glass one laying around I would do the same. But I think the size of the acrylic works better height wise without having to call the builder and make the stand taller

Ya for sure if you can afford it do it

I'm wishing I could fit a stock tank under there. Would have been $70

What is your space you have for a sump

What is your space you have for a sump

Tank itself is 30" wide. Subtracting the 1" on each side of metal tubing for the stand I will be left with 28" from to back. So the total footprint inside the frame will be 82"L x28"W x31"T

Looks good, any leak issues with that? On my build thread I thought of going this route, but I'm scared of it leaking/ spraying water.

Sorry to derail this thread

If you look for a while you might be able to find sump that will fit perfect

No haven't had any issues with leaking other then when I slack on changing at filter floss. It will start to drip out of the top of the drawer
