Sump for a 150

[LbulletM]

To keep costs reasonable and to customize to my liking, I'm going to be kitting my own sump.

Is a 55 a good size for a 150g tank, or should I spring for a 75?

Bigger is always better, but a 55 would work just fine if that’s all you can do.

I figure the savings between a 75 and a 55 is another frag or two, but I might go with the bigger tank anyways and have a larger refugium. Buy once, cry once, right?

Aaaaaaaaaand just realized they're the same length. ;Facepalm

I'm using a 75 as a sump for the 180. Plenty of room & a good size refugium. Go with the 75 if it will fit the budget .

We're just not telling the wife how much it's going to cost. ;)

Really, it won't be that bad with mostly Jebao, except for the Quantum 160.

Also the extra width is a big advantage
