WTB: Sump, Skimmer and Return Pump for 80G

[Lowenbrau]

I finally decided to buy Nightstar's 80 gallon rimless and will be picking it up tomorrow at the coral show. I would like, if possible, to get a sump, skimmer and return pump asap. Please let me know if you have anything.

Thank you,


Mike

for the return pump get an ecoplus 1056 from a hydroponics place. Sump: do a DIY one if Petco is having there $1 per gallon sale and get a 40g breeder. Skimmer IMO get a bubble magus Nac 5.5. Monster of a little skimmer.

Ive got a 40 gallon long already setup as a sump with glass baffles... and Ive got a bubble Magnus Nac6 skimmer. Ive made a couple of mods to the skimmer like an improved needle wheel and a new pump. Sometimes the skimmer sticks when the power goes off. I also have a myriad of return pumps you can choose from. LMK if u want to set something up.

I am still looking for a sump for my new 80 gallon. Please let me know if you have anything. I would prefer one that could have a refugium section.

They are OK. I would go with a trigger systems one over an eshopps though

If you want to make one, I would be happy to help for the cost of some scrap acrylic left over....
