my cat broke my sump...

Nano · #1 11-25-2011, 02:56 AM

So my sump is cracked cause of my EFFING CAT! Luckily I have a cheap powerfilter on hang for over night, now I cant affor a new sump, and my 20 gallon I think sump was a bit too much, so here are my Ideas
Fluval C series HOB
Aquaclear Hob(I have one they are good but can get loud)
Marineland Emperor(same I have one can get loud.)
The only one I haven't tried is the Fluval, any other suggestions? I'd like to keep my costs in mind as always

Make a new sump. Can be done for under $30 I imagine.

How did your cat break a sump? Was it made out of tissue paper?

no lol that would make sense.. She tried to jump through the underside of my tank and hit my overflow hard, it hit the glass and the glass cracked. I wont be doing another sump. And for the record I now dislike my cat.

If that's the worst my cats ever did I'd be a happy man.

I've always liked AquaClear HOBs. In my experience, they don't get loud at all. Maybe that's because I break it down completely and clean it weekly (especially the impeller) when I do a water change.

Well thats true I know, but I'd rather be safe. I dont want to come home to a bunch of dead fish and coral you know? Maybe in the future when I move to a bigger tank I will redo a new sump with a better over flow system. Again guys I know sump sump sump.. I dont want to risk it, I have a aquaclear 110 on now but the flow is mad fast. so I need something smaller lol
