Richie, I'm lost for words! But, I must say that I appreciate mostly, how you designed my sump. I thought it was brillant, how you designed the filter sock holders, the ease to remove.
Richie, mostly how you listen to my requirements and kept me up-to-date during the building process. Again the sump looks great, thank you! You got my recommendation!!

Router was used for teeth. Portercable bits and a ryobi router. Someone once told me its not the tool its the person behind it. LOL.

Hey I am interested in purchasing this sump from Wolverine. Can you just clarify a few things for me since you built it?

Hey I am interested in purchasing this sump from Wolverine. Can you just clarify a few things for me since you built it?

the left is the fuge. The right is for a skimmer. The center was an area for frags. The return you have right. This was built for an external return pump. I also didnt drill any bullheads because he wasn't sure on what bulkhead he was using.
