• Building a 250-liter marine aquarium with a sump

  • Laura4892

Good day! After a visit to Egypt for vacation, I have firmly decided to have a piece of the sea. After contemplating which sea to choose, I have decided to base my project on two well-planned projects described in the articles by Nikolai Strochkov a.k.a. Sleepy: Reef Aquarium 100x45x55h (description and drawings) and Reef Aquarium 120x65x60h (description and drawings). I have modified the display aquarium size to 100x60x50h. Since my knowledge of the sea comes only from books and stories, I greatly appreciate your help and suggestions. Let's build it together. I want to construct the display aquarium with a central overflow box, as in the 100x45x55h project. I want to build the stand based on the drawings from the 120x65x60h project, adjusting it to the size of the 100x60x50h aquarium. I have not yet decided on the sump, as I need to rely on experience, which I currently lack. Ido not yet understand the significant differences between them, but the designs are obviously different.
