    And- the sump situation.

    You don't have to use a glass aquarium! I don't! I have several threads on my rubbermaid plastic container stand I'm surerently using for my 125.

    Go to a big box store with some measurements- and get a think plastic container that hyou can 'squeeze, and/or wedge in the stand'. usually the wooden walls lend it support and the sump isn't full to the top anyway.

    Sky's the limit on ideas on this hobby.

    FWIW- I also have an awsome DIY HOB overflow I made for my 125- high flow to the DIY sump. There's some threads on that too.

    Whatever you decide, keep it simple, - enjoy!
    Happy Reefing!

    Has anyone ever done, or seen the background painted in a purple Coraline color? I always think about doing it.. but not sure until I see one.
