Hey there everyone. Fairly new to the Sump system since I’ve only dealt with AIO tanks since I first started. I got a used Waterbox 60.2 but looks a bit like the last model. The sump looks pretty straight forward but is there a place for me to add a filter sock in this? I’d love to hear your recommendations.

It doesn't look like it, but the good news is that you won't have to remove them to fit a fleece roller.
Not exactly the answer I was looking for but yes, the roller was my next choice. I decided to try to make something before I dropped $200 or so on one. What do you think of possibly using something like this to add some filter floss to it. Had to make it into a 2 part to make it fit on my 3d printer.

That could certainly work, yes. Just make sure you put something along the edges to give it a watertight seal.
Thanks for the response. Yes, This should be snug but I’ll be adding a top bead of silicone to ensure that water stays in but can be taken out of I ever need to.
