Darren,
you mean the 14 gallon he did?
yes the basic idea is all the same no matter how big you go. with smaller type sumps you can not really put a refuge( algae export station) in it easily..
befroe you start your sump , figure out if you will do a interanl pump or external. and how much room you need under the tank..
DId you ever look up james of gotfish?
