Hey folks,
We recently had a Sailor pass away. He was an avid reefer and we are looking to build up a tank at our command as a dedication. We have been lucky enough to get a tank (400g), stand and most equipment donated to us in one shape or another. The only thing we still need is a large sump. We have looked at the Synergy sumps as well as Beshea. I have also reached out to both companies to see if they have anything damaged or open box that we can save on since our funds are almost depleted for this project. No response from either, which is fine
So, the question: is it worth it to try and build our own? Is there another company I can reach out to that might have something sitting around they cannot sell? I have limited experience with acrylic but would worry about the long term integrity. Thoughts?
