Nicks 120 tank build/fish room upgrade (diy)

[nrosdal]

since i am kinda cheap and i have used one of these boxes before with success i decided to make my sump/fuge/skimmer compartment out of them



just take off the handles and drill a couple holes and here is the new sump



and a new fuge



and a dry fit and cut to size to see how my intakes were going to look and if i needed to change plans.



here is what i was planning initially.. to have the sump under and the other parts draining straight down into it.. but i decided not to do so due to the fact that i would like easy access to vac out sump and do pump maintenance.
