This is our made to order (MTO) Single Filter Sock Holder adjustable depth 4 Chamber Sump/Refugium Pro baffle kit for 10 gallon Aqueon® or Imagitarium™ glass tanks.** Tank and Filter Socks Not Included **
Our exclusive ezBuild sump kits are the fastest and easiest way to convert a glass aquarium to a fully functional sump. The key difference in our kits is the fully assembled sock baffle. There's no need to purchase the Weld-On Cement, clamps, and other tools necessary to properly assemble the typical 3 piece keyed sock baffle found in other kits. We do that for you using recessed joints that insure proper alignment and improved strength. Since we don't use keyed parts, we don't create the leak points common with through hole tab slots. The end result is a durable, great looking sock baffle that you can install in minutes simply by dropping it into the tank and sealing it in with silicone. So simple, a sea monkey could do it.
This 10 gallon kit is latest addition to our premium Pro Line of sump/refugium kits. The pro line offers unique features which give you exceptional control over your sump flow.
Included are all the parts you'll need to convert a standard glass Aqueon® or Imagitarium™ brand 10 gallon aquarium into a fully functioning 4 chamber sump or refugium for your display aquarium. All you'll need is the glass aquarium, some aquarium safe silicone and a pair of filter socks that suits your filtration needs. The three included baffle plates can be used to divide the tank into distinct sections for filter socks, a refugium or equipment like protein skimmers or reactors, a bubble trap and your return pump.

- Inlets: The number of holes in the lid for your inlet pipes. 1 x 1" means there is one hole for a single 1" PVC inlet pipe.
- Orientation: Left handed kits have the inlets in the back left corner and the water flows left to right. Right handed kits have the inlets in the back right and the water flows right to left.
