I've been browsing this site for a month or two and figured its about time I become more than just an observer. I got into reefing about a year ago. I started with a 34g Solana and I have since added a 75g. I'll try to post some pics later today. My main interest right now is setting up a sump for my 75g. Right now I just have two HOB filters but I just don't think they are sufficient. In addition to that I haven't yet set up an ATO so I practically need a personal assistant to keep the water level right. I just bought a JBJ ATO, Reef Octopus NWB-150, and Life Reef Overflow. Now all I need is a sump, plumbing, and return pump! I think something along the lines of a 29g would work. I feel like I am over analyzing this sump build. I have been hoping to find one that fits my needs for a decent price without having to DIY. No luck so far. Anyway looking forward to learning from this group.

Welcome...sounds great! 29 gal. is a perfect size for the $. I'm just down the road if you need any assistance.

Since you are in the area, I'm curious what LFS you use. I go to Athens but would be interested in what else is out there.

I usually go to see Chris and Julie at FishScales. They are off of Friendship Rd. in Buford. You should be able to visit our sponsor page for directions to all our sponsors.

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to Fish Scales today to see if they can outfit me with a sump. I have seen some posts on here that suggest they have a shop to build sumps on site.
