A while back I was going through a thread and someone had a link to an acrylic filter sock mount for sumps.....it was just a basic L shape with a ring....has anyone seen one of this and has a link? I cant find the thread it was on....

I have seen ones on Marine depot but they have pvc piping as part of it.....not looking for that.....

Thanks!!!

I'm not sure if I bought it from MD or DRFS, but the pvc pipe is optional for your use. You can just direct your own pipe into the sock. Mine is made by CPR. The CPR one doesn't work on eurobraced sumps (at least mine doesn't).

Good Luck.

Thanks guys!

OliverM3 -- Can you remove the PVC fitting or is attached to the unit?

It's just a plastic pipe that they provide It's not even attached it just slides in to the hole in the top of the fixture.

So you don't need to use it.
