Thank you scuba... I'm currently trying to go through LFS to see if i can get one... but thanks for keeping me in mind...

And on another note... im still trying to get this sump thing working for me... im pretty sure im gonna order this (http://www.glass-holes.com/product.s...3&productId=3), but i still cant find the right container for a sump...

Not having acess to tools and **************** is so frustrating... and if i wasnt so friggin ocd that would help too... this is supposed to be an excercise in calm and its turned into a stress fest...

p.s. ciliata blends to its environment after a few molts... so its doesnt really matter how pretty it is int he begining...

A sump can be made out of anything, really...just regular glass tanks, stock tanks, tupperware bins...

ya, a sump doesnt have to be anything fancy unless you want it to be

oh i agree completely... but my sump/fuge will be sitting on the counter behind my tank... i dont want it to be tall enough to see it through the tank... and it will be exposed... sooooo it needs to look good... I just need to can this whole thing and get a stnad so i can hid the sump but i wanted to be able to see my fuge...

There is my most recent pic... as you can tell its got some rubble and some cheato in it now... i still hat the fact its so chocked full of equipment... so im looking into building a lil platform for it to sit on and some other stuff... Im just trying to get it settled b4 i actually put anything in it...

im a bit OCD... so not being happy with stuff like this is pretty normal...
