Custom DIY Sump For PRFishGirl - How To Build

[@retroreefs7986]

Your build videos are by far the best reef KZbin build videos. You have a great ability to teach the simplest stuff as well as more advanced stuff

[@BillyPipes]

Thank you very much Retro👍

[@alo90000]

Great video! Do you sell the baffles for a 20 gal 10.5 inch wide tank? Thanks

[@BillyPipes]

Thanks 👍 but im no longer selling these

[@jamesfields394]

Where can we find corian and what saw do you use to cut it ?

[@BillyPipes]

It's a Dupont product. It can be cut with any type of wood blade

[@enriquecantu6000]

Will a 20 gallon sump work for a 125gallon freshwater tank? Or what size would you recommend? And what other materials can I use to make baffles? Thank you

[@BillyPipes]

I would think a 20 gallon would be fine but I only have experience runnning saltwater systems

[@enriquecantu6000]

@@BillyPipes how about other materials for the baffles what are you using now?

[@kevinbeltran1509]

Can you make a video of how a sump works. The flow of the water and the purpose. Thanks.

[@BillyPipes]

I have multiple videos like that already on my channel 👍

[@kevinbeltran1509]

@@BillyPipes I'm more confused about how an overflow draining into the sump wont over fill the sump to the point that the return pump wont keep up with it. How do you regulate that? or the pump will leave the sump dry.

[@BillyPipes]

Depending on the style of drain the pump and drain run at the same gph. Usually a ball valve at either end is used to create the perfect flow. I did a video on herbie style method is explained that might help

[@melodeerochelle5228]

Would be interested in this baffle kit. Need to build my sump for my 137 going up.

[@BillyPipes]

I've currently run out of material

[@loki8686]

Hey! Do you sell the baffles. Where can I find it?

[@BillyPipes]

I dont sell them anymore. The material is on a huge back order

[@thomasdearing7718]

How much does this kit cost? I am needing one bad for my 100 gallon tank. I have a 20 gallon tank already. I want one that has a refugium. I love your designs!

[@BillyPipes]

Thank you, but im not building these at this time

[@johnatella8498]

When you cut your baffles, how do you know how wide to cut them? I know I need space for the caulk, but don't know how much space to leave. I think I remember 1/4 of an inch, but I am unclear if it is 1/4 of an inch total or each side.

[@BillyPipes]

I cut them as close to the glass as possible. The silicone goes on the outside edges of the baffles

[@johnatella8498]

[@polpowermetoo4531]

It looks good butt it doesn't function at all. The water just goes over the top , it doesn't flow right.

[@BillyPipes]

Maybe look at my videos with the exact design running my tank. Then get back to me and tell me it doesn't function at all.

Very nice 👍
