Hello fellow fish keepers I am making a 130 Gallon tank dimensions are Length 66 inch, height 24 inch, width 20 inch. ( I know the dimensions are odd but that's the space I have and I want a tank there) And I plan on keeping 10-12 discus in there with a few other smaller fish But my...

Sooo I'm new to this site, but not to the hobby. I just recently purchased a 265 gallon glass aquarium with a plexiglass sump at a great deal. The tank looks solid. Half inch glass with a double pane on the bottom. The sump is another story. Before i actually put this tank in my house and fill...

I just picked up a 90 gallon aquarium and it came with a sump setup for SW with a skimmer and I think it would be easier to start over rather than reconfigure it. I'm using a 20 gallon aquarium because unless I make one myself that's all that will fit in my stand. As of right now we are...

So I have 120 gallon tank with a AquaC EV-240 protein skimmer. I was curious is the Mag-Drive 12 enough or should I get the 18 (Or another model) ?

currently putting together my plans for a 72x60x24. Stock will be made up of gars/rays/aro/tig cat/bichirs (most likely). I've done sumps in the past but thinking of going canisters, i found the 2262's but they are pretty $$$ depending on how many i would need for this tank. i hear some good and...

Picked up a 265 a few months back for 400 bucks due to a leaky seal. After resealing it and months of selecting what fish and what kind of setup I want to run I am finally about complete. Fish are in it and they are happy but I am still fine tuning for the next few weeks. Guess I should list...

Just want to get a little feed back on this sump. Im just getting back into the fish, and this is my first wet/dry sump system I've ever had. I have this sump running a 75 gal freshwater aquarium with an overflow. I had to use this sump on the opposite side due to a crack on the side were the...

I'm in the process of building a wet/dry sump and am looking for a submersible pump that can handle 4,000 to 5,000 gph, while also being relatively quiet (will be operating in a living space) and energy efficient. Obviously, reliability is a plus. Anyone have any suggestions?

Tank is 48"x30"x20" (or 24") not too sure about the height. Tank has center overflow with 1.5" drain and 1" return. Very minimal scratches and can be easily buffed out. Love this tank but I'm getting a new one and I don't have space. Tank is $600 and includes: Ray2 48" Stand 40g sump I...

I'm finally building my 380 gallon tank! Yay. I'm not sure on wether I want to buy a filter (sump? Canister?) or if it's a better option to make one. What filters do you use/prefer? And any links/thoughts on building one? Greatly appreciated!

So I put a half inch sheet of styrofoam under a 240 gallon acrylic tank and I have four bulkheads in the bottom of the tank two out and two in. My question is are the bulkheads going to losen up as I fill the tank with water?

I'm new on here so hopefully I posted this in the right place. my wife got me hooked on this hobby and I've been tending her tanks for a while, however, this will be my first. I'm currently setting up my new 180g tank and am trying to design a sump that will be more than sufficient for the...
