 | Sump/ Refugium |
fraggedup   Enthusiast Posts: 169 Kudos: 43 Votes: 1 Registered: 10-Jan-2003   | Can anyone tell me of a company who sells sump/refugiums. I don't want to spend a ton of money and I don't want to build one either. I've seen a great set of plans but done have the time.  Thanks Rich Last edited by fraggedup at 09-Feb-2005 16:44 |

| DarkRealm Overlord Moderator metal-R-us Posts: 5962 Kudos: 2166 Registered: 23-Sep-2002 | If you want to go with the 10 gallon glass tank then you will have to have glass baffles cut and silicon them in. For acrylic, take a drawing into a local acrylic/plastic shop and ask if they could make it for you. you could also call [link=http://www.glasscages.com]http://www.glasscages.com" style="COLOR: #FF0000[/link] and they can custom build one for you....their prices arent bad either. |

I know of several in use right now, and they have not had any problems with them, and they are really glad they purchased them. http://www.oceanicsystems.com/products_aq_rrsumps.html There is always a bigger fish... |

| ACIDRAIN Moderator Posts: 3162 Kudos: 1381 Votes: 416 Registered: 14-Jan-2002 | The costs depend on where you purchase them at. Check at your lfs and see which ones carry or can order them, and see what prices they are selling them for. There is always a bigger fish... |
