A message from a sump convert!
“Two years in with my Freshwater Cleair Aquariums Sargasso 200cm x 50cm. Used it to divide rooms after Ollie sourced us an acrylic panel to fit onto the back of the cabinet and we took off the blue vinyl backing to make it visible both sides.
It’s been a great tank and I recommend it to anyone. I wouldn’t even contemplate a tank without a sump now. It makes maintenance so much easier and the large volume of water helps keep parameters stable versus a small tank
