Nice build, but why the teeeeeeeeeeny sump?! With all that room you could easily have a sump 2-3 times the size of your current sump.

Lol i know i know. It was vertically small but it worked. There's a thread i posted called "new, new refugium" in the DIY section. I made a 55gal refugium that's running on that system now.

Thanks. It saved me a lot of money because since the refugium is so big now it helps to keep the temp in my aquarium a lot cooler. I thought I was going to have to get a chiller when I had that small refugium on it.

I made the doors. Just added a trim bord around the edges of the doors and bought nice looking handles all from lows. Really easy to make.
