Cube Sump?
Is anyone aware of a sump manufacture that makes sumps specifically for a cube aquarium? Seems that with the growing popularity of cubes that someone would make a cube sump but I haven't stumbled across one yet. Looking at a 36" x 36" cube. Thanks!

Several tank manufacturers make custom tanks and sumps. Sumps are easy to make and can be very simple. No need to get crazy with chambers ect. A place for the skimmer, media reactor, a baffle, and a return chamber are all thats really needed.

I'm in the Bay Area - Northern California.
I recognize anything can be built to spec - but still find it odd that no one manufactures a pre-fab one... Maybe a business idea brewing here ![]() |

I made my own for my 45 cube. 22" x 22" I used precut plexiglas from tapplastic.com. I think there on the west coast and great to deal with.
