those are the exact links I was going to post as well, if I were you I would go larger than 10 gallons for the sump though, bc at that size, the cost looks to outweigh the benefits imo.
wuts costs r u thinking of? the only costs i am going to have is for media, and maybe a valve or two for the tap! i have pvc all roun the house, extra silicone from other projects, 10gallons from the kids, and plexiglass from other projects too! there are relatively no costsunannon;1505204;1505204 said:
i dont, so buying all that stuff I would just go bigger, which is what I am going to do on my extra 55 for the 220.
haha yea i just found this now so i thought i'd try to help if he hasnt started and finished already! i planned mine out yesterday and should start siliconing tonight and might try to add another10gal to the sump if it'll fit under my standDr Joe;1505297;1505297 said:19 days and we're still talking about this!....Let's get going
