Reefsakes Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Been busy planning and sourcing equipment for my reef lounge build. The plan is 1 redsea reefer 850s, 1 redsea reefer 1000s and 1 innovative marine 150g 47x35x20 lagoon. Have anyone mod the sump to run a clarisea 5000? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reefsakes Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Not much update but modded the red sea sump to fit clarisea5000. Had to cut out the sock section. Ordered a 40mm to 1.25" coupler and reduced the 1.25" to 1" to fit the clarisea5000. Had to replace the elbow on the clarisea to extend it away from the drain valve a bit so I can access the bulkhead easier. The drain tube thing in the clarisea is a strait thread so I had to use 2 1.25" x .175" rubber gasket to get a tight fit where the elbow was.

youcallmenny Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Switching to a filter roller was one of the best things I've done for myself in the hobby. Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeCrew Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Hello, amazing project. I would love to have a room like that at some point in my life.:) I have a Red Sea p500. I would like to be able to put a filter roller as well. Is there any way to do it without cutting sections out of the sump? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 This is going to be awesome - surround reef! You should post some panning videos from the couch when you get it all together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
