I can't think of any specific ones off the top of my head. What size tank are you looking for a sump for? Any specific questions?

I JUST got done revamping my sump and overflows to allow for a larger return pump (1100 gal) on my 55... yes, my 55. Here is the best link page I could find:

Let me know what you are trying to do with your tank/sump and maybe I can be of some help. Did a LOT of trial and error over the last week!

well i was just wondering about baffle placement. its a 4 foot tank.... the 55..

like i saw so much peopld doing different things w/ the baffles... and like where the water line and all :|

hmm.. i have a 90 gallon w/ an iwaki 30rxlt ?

and my sump. im plannign to use the old 55 and just partition the last part and put my iwaki inside of it, its not going to be in the water

so 3/4 of the 55 sump will be w/ baffles and all, and 1/4 will be the iwaki ... and plumbing..the return. the 1/4 won't be water, it'll be partitoned off.. hmmm

but anyways.. im tryign to construct the durso.. is teflon tape reallly necessary??

thanks for lsitening

Here are a couple links I found useful for sump info

Other than that look at the different vendors at their sumps selections and learn from those as well.
