Sump Help

[CHILLI RED]

I'm hoping some of you guys can point me in the right direction. I'm getting a 220 gallon tank next week and want to add a sump filter. Where can I buy a really good one?

I find the best ones are the DIY ones..... ever think of building one?

 

[CHILLI RED]

I dont want to make one. I would like to buy one all ready to go.

I stopped by Lucky's today and had a quick chat with one of the owners. They make sumps for customers but are quite pricey. I must be able to find someone to make a good one for me cheaper. They were talking about making one for me with either a 75 or 90 gallon tank. It would come with pump, overflow kit- as the tank I'm getting hasnt been drilled. I dont know if I should have it drilled or not. It would also come with a good uv filter and all media.

No Chen that wasnt me. I was there around 4 I think. And by myself as my wife hates to go to fish stores all the time. I left her shopping downstairs.

How big is this sump? Is it really good? I just want to make sure I get a good one the first time. I dont want to have to upgrade to a better one later.

umm id say around 35- 40 gallons?? not 100 % sure
i know it has a spinning trickle outlet and IMO good for 360..
they also have glass sumps with compartments for like 100! all ud need then is a pump and overflow
