hello everyone! I would say im still fairly new to the hobby. Ive had a fluval edge with 2 clowns, a blenny, single chromis, and a peppermint shrimp. Im in the midst of setting up a 55 gallon deep blue reef ready. I have a little dilemma. I custom built a hood to fit an existing piece of furniture i plan to use as the stand and Id like to set up a sump. I have some serious space restraints. It has two compartments on either side with the dimensions L-14 W-7.5 H-20. Is it possible to place and eheim compact 3000, neotherm heater, and a tunze 9002 into such a small space and if soo does anyone know someone who would make an acrylic sump/fuge of this size?. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ive looked everywhere online. The other cabinet on the other side I had planned to use for an ato reservior of similiar size. So I would need 2 i think. The size I mentioned is probably max size so I can still work on them. Essentially a vertical sump.
