Laying back in the fast lane

Your boy Scuba Smurf been grinding off the scene and getting close to hooking this sump up. Currently trying to get hooked up with Polyplab to showcase there blocks and build that true micro bio diversity Salem has interested me on to build my knowledge and a better living safe for this amazing animals we call coral! For my overflow box that will go inside the tank. I am having a new 3-D printed overflow box for inside the tank, that will showcase the same volume as the old box that was attached to the acrylic box, but it will be more thin so It won’t be so bulky visually in the back of my tank . This build has been fun, now to learn how to plumb it all!!! Happy Reefing everyone!

Coming along!

Sump build off

Here is how the build has been going. Had a different sump donated to me. I have loaded it up with 50 bio blocks and still want to get a polylabs block to finish off my bio load section. I have a new job overflow box being 3d printed for inside the tank to be slim profile. Will use the 800gph with controller to help with return and have a 3/4inch check valve for the supply. Definitely excited to see this bio diversity expand from my current Tidal 110 HOB filled with live rock and media. Thanks for following along and stay tuned for more of the build.

Taking the 39 gallon bowfront to the next level

Picked up this 15 gallon sump and overflow box for cheap. Wanting to maybe rebuild the tank overflow box portion to make more long and slender and add a dual siphon tube. Want to find a SICCE 2.0 silent pump if anyone has any connections. Other than that all knowledge of a sump and tips would be great
