Please don't just add one coral to the tank like your 300
The sump was a complete failure on the builders part. He made a mistake on the measurements of thinkign 1' 4" = 14".

We sell the Vertex V6 pumps but don't stock them. We bring them in on special order. It's a VERY expensive pump so its not in high demand.

The 300G display we have takes a ton of coral to fill. We are also very picky on the types of coral we put in our displays so that doesn't help.

This little 45G will take no time to fill.

Why don't you guys just make your own sump? You can get acrylic cut to size at plasticworld for a reasonable price and they cut on the spot.

I have very little experience with acrylic so the end result would look terrible.

Some jobs are better left for the professionals.

I finally got the aquascaping finished!!!

I am really liking this Caribsea Life Rock.

It's so much easier on the eyes compared to bright white dry-rock and having to wait 10 months for coraline to kick in.

I installed conduit to run all the power cords into.

Once the new sump is delivered, I will take some pics.

I think that looks amazing and the whole build is pretty impressive!

I considered that rock product... for about 5 minutes. Just don't really know what's in it. Concrete I guess.

Following to see how this tank does long term. Keep the updates coming please!
