300g sump (1 Viewer)

[LSU-Reefer]

I am trying to decide on which sump to use on my 300g, i am thinking of using one of these three:

MRC 48" Sump - Berlin - 48x20x20
MRC 48" Hi Flow Reef Sump - Refugium - 48x24x20
MRC 48" Bio Sump - 48x18x18

Anyone have any opinions on which of these are better....

I am not sure about the bio sumps media but like the layout and am not sure i want to maintain a refugium.

How about custom? I can build to your specifications.

That may be a possibility, although i am not sure i have exact specifications.

I am really looking something with a few filter socks, return pump area, and skimmer area but am open to suggestions of what would best work in a 300g. My main objective to something that i will not have to add on to once this system is up and running.

I don't think you will be disappointed...
