Wondering if anyone has step by step ways to assemble a sump for a 55 gallon reef. Im working on a small budget please take that into consideration please... any advice would be appreciated!

Want to start on this by tomorrow if possible.

Just check the site out and what I did is used a cheap glass tank and made baffles out of acrylic, plumbed and done!

+3 on the site. Marc on melevsreef.com is (in my opinion) the best source for info about sumps (and many other DIY reef projects). I have spent countless hours reading stuff on his website.

I built my sump based on some of his info and didnt spend much at all on it.
