Hello,

I purchased a 90 gallon Aqueon aquarium and now I am looking for a sump to put in my stand. Since I am working on a
strict budget since I need all the equipment I am thinking about a sump kit. I need a sump with the measurements around
36 x 15 x 15 since I purchased a short stand, which I thought would be easier to clean as this is my first venture with a
reef aquarium with a sump and have no clue what I am doing. I was looking at a sump kit from Windrider Creations and was
wondering how difficult these kits are to put together and how likely they are to leak.

I am also looking for a protein skimmer but have to be selective as my stand only allows me 22.5" from the bottom of the stand
to the top of the doors, which is also the reason for the custom size sump. The actual size of my stand is 48 wide x 18 front to
back x 25.5 tall.

I would appreciate any suggestions you could give me.

Thanks

  • None! My inverts are model citizens. :-)
