[quote=marciemp;286066]Hi,
I also need recommendations on the sump accessories, like what return pumps & what size, what protein skimmer, overflow...
where to buy, what to buy...we also have a budget of about $400 possibly a bit more for the WHOLE thing.

Just some ideas and pricing!!!

1) Overflow ($150 new)

2) Hoses, gate valves, clamps, glue ($50)
3) Pump (180 new)

4)30 x 12 x 20 tank 30gal ($40 new)

5) 12x 18 " pieces of glass x 3 + 12" x 30" top glass (60) glass shop.
6) Skimmer I am not even going to go there and try and fit one in your $400 budget.

Most everything there you can keep an eye out for used deals, as they come across the board consistently.

Good luck and maybe after the new year I might have time to lend a hand.
