I was wondering where you were at.. LOL

Well here is the sump with the baffles in it I will get a few more pics later from the side. Still have to put the bubble trap in it but just wanted to give all a peek of it. I want to thank Corey for his awesome drawing of it that gave me the guild to go by so it could be done..

Lol. I just missed this thread last night (had to be at work at 4 am and had a really long day). Don't worry I am here now.

Nice sump!

Thanks Gemmy. Now I just have to get my step father down here to get the outlets put in for me so I can get the tank set up. I am hoping that he will be able to do them this week. I need new wire ran to the circuit box because I want to tank on its own breaker.. So keeping my fingers crossed that he will get here and get it done..

Yes they are all siliconed in there.. Just have to get the egg crate for the bubble trap and install that.. Then will have to water test it to see if they seals are good and if so then I am good to go with the sump....

 

[2quills]

Sounds good. Did you say you already got a pump for this thing?

I think this may be the most followed and anticipated build on this site in a very long time!

You really think so BTLD, it has been a long time since I have been talking about doing this build, and I have had many people give me advice to help me do it right..
