Sump build 40 gallon breeder tank

I figured I'd share pictures of my sump before I put it in the stand.

I put the baffles at 12" for the bubble trap and 13" for the refugium. I figured that would make it too deep for the skimmer so I built that little stand. I know it's not much but I'm a computer geek so DIY for anything like this is a new experience.

I need to take a new picture now that it's installed. I had to run around yesterday and find a local place that has PVC bulkheads, I damaged ours trying to get them out Sunday and had unhappy fish yesterday until I got the overflow working again

Great job on the sump. Looks pro

Haha, Thanks Rob. My wife did all the hard work with the silicone, I just held it in place and smushed it into the baffles.
