post modern sump

[monocus]

not only would it cost a fortune for a thick arcrylic to hold the weight of the tank safely,you wouldn't be able to control a alternating sump/tank lighting.coraline algae would be a headache to clean off your sump as it will build up and take away the "clean" appearance.detrus will accumilate in the refugium,and in my sump i have an over abundance of spaghetti worms,which no matter how many times you clean them off they will come back.i also have sponges growing at different places throughout the sump,which would again take away the clean look
