Elite aquatics

Does anyone own one of his sumps? If so pros and cons looking at purchasing one

I just got mine all set up... I love it! You won't be disappointed in an @Elite-Aquatics sump. And if there's something you don't like about the default layout, then you can request they change it. There may or may not be a charge associated with it. For example, mine went in the stand of a Red Sea Reefer 450 and the Elite Aquatics sumps had the drains at the wrong ends. So they flipped the entire layout of the sump, end-to-end, for no additional charge. I also wanted orange acrylic instead of the default red... this there was a charge for since they don't typically stock orange acrylic.

Bought their sump and ATO container before the changed the style and both arrived well packaged with approximately 1-1/2" Styrofoam sheets surrounding them all sides for protection. I'm happy :)

If I am not mistaken Elite has free shipping and Synergy charges for shipping. That was the deal when I purchased my EA sump. I also added heater holders and a few other small things for a extra minor charge. However you decide to go will be a quality product!
