I tried finding this info everywhere to no avail...even red sea manual for the max line up doesn't cover dimensions of the two sumps only water volume and they differ from 1 gallon in size. I want to know if I can use the red sea max 260 sump upgrade on my current max 170 plug and play. In pics it looks like the sump is the same for both just rotated on a different side inside the cabinet for each tank. Or maybe I can use the Max 170 Piping upgrade and use a different brand sump or build my own?

If no one knows, you could always contact Red Sea directly.
