Elite Aquatics sumps seem very nice, any idea of the thickness of teh acrylic

Surprised that no one has mentioned Elite Aquatics. First rate sumps and Tyler will make modifications per your specs or build it entirely custom - plus free shipping. That is what I am going with under my new ReefSavvy. This one is 40" with no refugium. I asked for the blue acrylic (standard is red) and paid a little extra. Dealing with them was a pleasure.

Any idea of the thickness on this sump's acrylic for body and bracing???

Do people recommend an all in one sump/refugium or a stand alone refugium.

I have the cl44 and the shadow overflow. Couldn't be happier. Great quality

Did the Synergy 44 come with the silencer pipes for the drains or did you have to do those yourself???

Stand alone refugium if possible.

I had to make them myself. I set the 2 main drains at equal height and overflow protection just a bit higher

Anyone have any pictures of there stand alone refugiums, i was pondering doing a stand alone refugium on my tank so it would have slower flow through the refugium.

So you just bought the matching PVC from Synergy? Any more pictures of inside your sump setup and plumbing?

Did you use the manifold bulkheads on your sump, I think those are cool.

I did purchase the red pvc from reef synergy. I will try to get some more pics and post.
Not sure what a manifold bulkhead is, so I guess no, lol. Please share as now I am curious

There is an option to add three 1/2 inch bulkheads on rear of sump , which can be used for a manifold to run media reactors or other devices if necessary.

What kind of power supply is that in your sump I have been trying to find something g like that? I have now just a power strip with one shut off and I hate that I have to shut the whole tank Down instead of individual switches

 

[ifarmer]

I have 2, they are adj pc-100a. Each switch has its own circuit breaker also.
