I need something I can use as a sump, thats only 11" wide. The 20L tank I bought is too wide, so its up for trade. I also have

mj1200
mj1200 w/ modified output (cut to disperse water better)
aqtx cansiter filter w/ filter pads and 2 types of media
20g long tank (1 month old)
24" coralife pc's (65w x 2) 6 months old
generic cpr bak-pak style protein skimmer w/ rio 600rvt pump
generic powerhead (mj1200 copy) that came w/ generic skimmer
2 coralife clip-on moonlights


I'd like an old wet-dry or something that I could use as a sump. All of the rubbermaid stuff I can find that fit will only hold about 10g, and that's what I'm using right now. The coralife lights are the only items listed that are currently being used, but they're over a FW tank and and the old flourescents will do fine.

I don't want to use a u-tube to connect 2 10g tanks for the sump, I'd be too worried about the siphon breaking.

The items will go up for sale if no one is interested in trading.

If you can spare and extra 3/4" then this is 11 3/4" wide.

I knew I saw an "old wet-dry" somewhere. How tall is it and what can I get you for it? My stand also has a drawer, so height may be an issue too.

22caddy, I won't lie, my moonlights suck. They're yours if you want them, free. One is twice as bright as the other for some reason. I'm having selgado (john) make me a set of his to replace them. Check his gallery for pics, I think they're on his last page. He's out of commission for a while due to medical reasons, but he advertised that he was taking orders for them.

Well they would be better than nothing. PM me and I'll pick them up on Friday or Saturday, whatever is best for you. Going to check out some houses so I will be all over this weekend.

If anyone can use the blue wet-dry pictured above, let me know. I cleaned it up a little, but it won't fit in my stand either. I guess I'm stuck with a 10g sump.

What are the other dimensions? It might work well for me.

The wet-dry is 23 1/2 inches long, 11 3/4 inches wide, and about 18 inches high at the top of the intake. I've still got everything that's in the picture. My stand is just weird, but the price was right. Thanks again Ryan.

I'll have to check my height clearance when I get home in the morning. Can you email me a price? Thanks, Tim
