The model C split sump is what I'm going after, though I will be using a 10 rubbermaid container for the fuge.

I agree its a great link!

 

Wow raven, that is an awesome site. I'm thinking real hard about upgrading to a 90 gallon tank and I built the refug for my tank I have now, http://www.3reef.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32359

This is great stuff to study. thanks.

I use a swing type check valve to prevent back flow during a power failure. Got it from Marine Depot.

 

I used one of Melev's designs for the 34gal sump/fuge I built. He has a great site for sump designs and how to build them. There is some info on my site:

that might help with design...the first two pages is a 20gal tank retro then the rest has the new sump design etc.
