Idea for a sump for a 54 corner.

[reefme]

I currently have a 54 corner with one 7 year old clown. been wanting to start converting to live rock and softies and I'm in need on idea for a sump.

Corner tanks are tough You will need to get a good measurement try putting boxes in there are the same size as the sump to see if it will fit and go in there

If you are good with your hands, you could do a DIY sump. If you want post the dimensions inside your stand and I will post some sump drawings for you to review.

I can't see fitting anything larger than the foot print of a 10 gallon tank. Unless the sump is made to mimic the shape of the stand.

The folks who make the I-tech skimmers were making sumps for corner tanks you could give them a call.

Iseen a pretty good idea, Im not sure how handy you are. But build an L shaped sump would be the best, however, you wouldnt have any room to store anything under the tank

Sweet! That should be end of discussion. Maximum water volume there. No brainer for sure. Nice sump dude.

Thanks man, at first I was thinking of maybe doing an L-shaped sump, but then I wanted to increase my total system water volume, so I came up with this design. Thank godness for custom acrylic shops! lol.
