Looking for a custom sump builder

Bigfish93 · Jan 29, 2014

Like the title says, I'm looking for a sump builder. I have looked into two of the big builders that are on reef2reef and one of them no longer builds custom sumps and the other one is on the other side of the country. By the way I'm in Las Vegas NV.

Does anyone know of any builders on this half of the country that does a good job? Not looking for a basic sump. Sump has a lot of detail.

Check out Melev in Cali or Elite Aquatics in Utah. Both are fantastic.

Check out my thread, you can see the custom work EA did on my sump.

There's a few different companies out there that make them. I got mine custom made from trigger systems. Super happy with it.

I was going to go with EA but they no longer build custom sumps. Was a bit bummed out. I will have to look into Melev. Haven't heard of them.

Will have to look into trigger. Didn't know they did custom sumps.

AJsTank... Amazing setup you have! Your sump is amazing. That's what I want just on a smaller scale.

He's not on that side of the country, but Rick at Synergy builds some excellent custom sumps.

I received a quote from them and it was a bit more than I wanted to spend. Looks like he does amazing work though. Gong to see what other options there are. May just have to save up a little longer.
