I have a couple of “custom” sumps that I have built for people

Please feel free to critique me

I get everything cut with a precision laser, and I use a burmac machine to smooth the sides.

Did someone ask for three part dosing box? Only reason I ask is because I wouldn't see using some much Mag. Just wondering but your work looks nice and clean cut! If I didn't just do a DIY 75 gallon sump I would give you a call! You should do baffle kits for people that would help expand your business!

Yes someone wanted a extra large 3part dosing container I threw in the engraving as a freebie. Good idea! On baffle kits
I have looked into doing some of those lately. Which will be a lot less labor intensive.

I have been meaning to do an algae reactor too.

Yeah baffles are easy and you can do small custom changes which aren't a lot of work.
