CUSTOM SUMPS, REFUGIUMS, RESERVOIRS, BERLIN SYSTEMS

Here is just a sampling of the hundreds of custom projects that have been designed and fabricated at Lifereef.
Perhaps one of these designs will work for your application. If not, let my 26 years of sump/refugium
design experience help you with your project.

Should you like a quote for one of these projects or additional information please ask.

Dimensions can be changed on many of these (hence "custom") to fit your cabinet space and we can discuss this when you order. I try to get as much versatility into your sump as possible. It's not just a 3-compartment plastic box with a filter sock thrown in as most of those others are.

Though some of these have been designed for the RSM aquariums they can also be built for the JBJ aquariums too!

Remeber, custom means I can build sumps and sump/refugiums for any application and most any size.

A MODEL A This sump/refugium can be built to accomodate a variety of nano protein skimmers as well as a variety of cabinet sizes. For more iformation click HERE	B MODEL B Compact sump/refugium.

These are just a few of the hundreds of custom sumps that have been designed for that custom need! Each system is designed based on your needs and requirements and physical limitations of location. Whether it be for a size limitation or an idea of your creation, you can be assured that it will function as planned.
