Sump Photos

[mrc]

We've been getting a lot of complaints about not showing off our stuff more often. So, we're going to try and do a better job of posting photos for your drooling pleasure

We've also just started a new Facebook page (as of a couple of days ago). We'll be launching a very cool contest soon, so make sure you become a fan! :up:

Here's a custom sump that we just completed. It features a section filled with Seachem matrix for an unbelievable amount of biological filtration:

Matrix ok in the long run? How much is in there?

I'm willing to try it instead of rubble, I had great results with it in fresh water

How much for that sump again?

Hehe, point your face skyward........the price is up there!

Misu - Yes, Seachem Matrix is safe for the long run. It will simply house bacteria colonies like live rock does, except to a higher degree. We prefer the pond matrix because of its larger size, but regular matrix also works fine.

Here's a photo of bacteria colonies living in Matrix media:

You can also read a study comparing Matrix to a couple of other competing medias here: http://www.seachem.com/support/SpecificSurface.pdf">http://www.seachem.com/support/SpecificSurface.pdf</a>


And for those who are worried about detritus collecting on the Matrix, you can remove and rinse the media WITHOUT killing the bacteria (most lives inside the media).

As always, quality equipment is not cheap. And MRC builds the most solid sumps in the biz.

And the prices are quite reasonable considering the quality is better than ANY other manufacture out there. I have not seen another product that is comparable at anywhere close to there prices. Deltecs for instance are 3 to 4 times the cost on there comparable skimmers.

:hail: WOW.. Simply WOW. What an awesome design. Biggest thing I love about this, THE COVERS!!!!

Personally not a fan of filter socks, and like a spot for chaeto, but DANG, this is so clean and cool...
