Depends on the size of the sump and brand of ceramic media.

can you post a link to a site that sells them?

Ok I went out tonight and bought some plexy and silicone, drained my sump, stuck all my heaters in my tank and started DIYing...

Here is what I used...

Then I stuck the 2 pieces of Plexy in...

This is is with the "innards" ... the media to the left <> Heater chamber and whatever in the middle <> and pump on the right...

And now for 24 Hours of Curing ...
