Custom sump in place!

Return line plumbed up. Need to get a cap so I can make a spray bar instead of a straight shot into the bottom disrupting the sandbed.

Here's the overflow, waiting to be filled and flowed.

There's the skimmer that's hanging on the side of the sump.

Where did you get this fixture that covers the whole tank that is in the first picture on this thread?

Instead of the spray bar you can just add another 90 so it goes through the water instead of straight down. That is the way mine is anyway but it came that way and I have never had a need to change it.

I thought about that, but I don't really want to glue it at a certain angle and I have no idea if it will stay on there If I just snug it on. I like to change my flow around all the time.

I'll probably just do that, but I realized I bought ABS glue to plumb for some dumb reason instead of PVC. I should have just gotten some multipurpose from work. Oh well.
