20 GAL SUMP Conversion

[flyingarmy]

I am going to make my 20 GAL tank into a sump/refugium. Since my 55 GAL is not drilled and currently has livestock, anyone know of a good source for a hang-on overflow and a place to buy custom pieces of acrylic to make the sump? If anyone has any lessoned learned while making yours, please post them up. Thanks in advance!

Looking forward to seeing the pictures. I don't need the bio-balls...too much of a nitrate producer. Already pulled my bio-balls out of my other Sealife Sump and replaced with LR & LS!

I threw most of the bio-balls away...except for about 10 which my cat absolutely loves! No need to buy expensive cat toys!
