huh... interesting material... am I correct in reading that it is a resin rather than a silicate/quartz sand? Is there a history of safe aquarium use with this product? Very interesting stuff though... and lots of colors! ;P

Oh.. and how much did you end up paying per bag?

Why not just use a slightly smaller tank for the sump? A 4' 40G would be perfect...

Is there enough clearance between the top of the sump and the bottom of the stand to service it? Looks really tight...

Thanks to frank for stopping by and helping me get my sump into the stand! Boy was it guy wrenching having your dream tank and stand cut into! Once the cut was done we got the sump in and then I glued, patched and painted it should look close to original when it dries!

Before


The puzzle after the cut...


My first attempt at glueing and patching wood


Than sanded down and painted


The end result is I got my sump in, plumbing delayed til tomorrow waiting on a coupler

A 40g would not have been sufficient to handle the flow and media I plan on using as well as the capacity of the water that drains out once pump is turned off. It's right but there 6" of workable room under there. I wish the stand was taller thought to give me more workable room
