I'm looking at my sump options for the 210g. I would normally just make one out of a $/gallon tank but am considering something that looks a bit spiffier.
I know of:
Synergy
Trigger
Aqueon
Reef Octopus

Anyone else you know of that fabricates sumps? If you have any experience with them, I would love to hear it.

I personally run the Trigger Sys Emerald 39, which has an operating volume of around 26-29 gallons. Solidly build sump but couple things on there i am not a fan of. They do custom work too and the owner - David, is pretty responsive via emails.


for a 210, you'd be looking at a larger sump. Elite-Aquatics in Utah is pretty good at making custom sumps. their facebook page is more active vs website.

I had spoken to Chris at midwest (they made my aquarium and stand) when i did my sump. basically, if you have a simple sump design, he can help. But if you are looking for something with the newer upgrades (like sump lids, foam plates, adjustable water leveler, probe and hose holders, etc) then you are better off going with a company that specializes in sumps. They tend to already have designs on file and it only comes down to customizing sizes. that'd be more cost effective in my opinion.

Raj @ My Reef Creations makes some great custom and premade sumps.

I have one of his iSump pieces. Stellar quality.
