Newreefer151 · 03/29/2011, 08:22 PM

Trying to got a sump into a space that is 17 1/4 by 12 by 24. Have been looking everywhere for a tank that size around 10 gallons acrylic or glass . Have found nothing, any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated!! Planning on using an eshopps overflow too. Seems like that is a popular reliable one.
