    Can someone direct me to a good sump design? I've seen some good threads on here in the past, but can't seem to locate them. I need to build a small sump - 10 to 15 gal. I have some spare FW tanks that could be used, but I'm open to building one from scratch also. The FW tanks that I would use have not had any meds, so I'm thinking they would be ok.

    watch out for the smaller sumps due to power shutoffs and the overflow/returns end up filling up the sump pretty darn fast
