Has anyone ever tried putting the plastic roofing in the link on their sump? I have a big rubbermaid sump in my office with my 180 gallon tank, and right now the humidity has just been crazy high. I'm considering putting the plastic roofing over the sump and cutting an area out for the skimmer. Reef safe? Is it effective and even worth the money?

You know at first I thought to myself "Well that doesn't help..." But then, I kept thinking "you know this guy is probably right..." (been holding out on getting one) Now I'm thinking "okay which dehumidifier am I going to get" :face-with-tears-of-joy: Thanks!

You can do that, PVC sheets from Home Depot, acrylic sheet.. then your de-humidifier won't have to work nearly as hard.
