WTB: Sump for 210 Reef

[Reef Mongoose]

Hello,
I'm looking to buy a large sump for a 210 gallon SPS Reef. I want the sump to have a large built in refugium section. Also, the overall measurements should be around 48" X 20" so that I have room under my stand for a calcium reactor, kalk reactor and some other toys. If anyone thinks that this is something they could provide please contact me. Thanks

Hey if nobody sells you one custom king will build you one and he can even build the reactor into the sump.

If you get a larger sump make sure its not made chemcast. If you do a search on RC you will see several threads where tanks fell apart after 6 months when made of chemcast especially if the joints weren't bubble-free. Spartech, Cyro, even plexi-glass is what you want. What some builders will do is still charge similar rates but use chemcast which is 1/2 the cost and has a bad reputation.

I made a sump that was 44*20 I believe, but it was pretty simple. I'll find out later this week but the guy might be selling his entire setup. Pictures of it are below.


This was made of cyro cast acrylic with all the edges routed and bubble free seams. This was simple but I've done all that fancy baffling also. Personally, I think the extra baffling can be a waste of time.




That last one was 5'*3'.

kimoyo, thanks, I'll make sure whatever I get is not made with chemcast acrylic. I don't really care for all the extra baffles either, I'm just looking for a basic sump with a fuge and as big as I can get in my and still get all my other stuff in there

wolverine57, thanks also, I am trying to get in touch with Custom King, several other people have recommended him and from the pictures I have seen his work looks very professional.
