Anyone has good plans for a 10gal sump making one for son for xmas
 
Here's my 30 gallon, you can scale it down...

Left chamber is in and protein skimmer, middle is fuge, and right chamber is return. 1" between baffle and bubble trap. Baffles are 9" tall.
 
great sump : Benamayer ! very neat looking (y)
although i would prefer going a bit higher. to have about 20-23gal in the sump.

but i wouldn't recomend a 10gal sump... just not big enough to fit anything. go bigger if you can!

it would be helpful if you describe your aquarium setup and how you have it running right now.
 
Yes go bigger if you can because I have a 10 gal sump and its only skimmer, heater and return in there. Not enough space for fuge.
 
I have a 10 gallon sump I just built. I made the first baffle at a 45 degree angle and put the intake and skimmer together. The middle section is a fuge an d last section is the return. It is my first sump build, but so far I like it because with the first baffle at 45 degrees I looks like just a fuge and a return.
 
Benamayer's is a perfect blue print of a nice sump. Thanks for sharing!
