    I am buying a 125 reef ready tank from mppanp and have never used a sump filtration before so kind of need some help getting going.  i have plenty of space i think under the stand.  any help would be appreciated.

    I have a 120 RR. The sump is a used 55 gallon tank from a club member. I know a lot of club members just use rubbermaid tubs too.

    i have a 55 i could use as a sump, but not sure if i could get that under the stand (since i dont have it yet) i'm getting a 20g i can use as a sump. what are the best materials to use in it and what order? i assume it would be cheaper to build one myself instead of buying a setup.
