It is important to choose a filtration system that is well equipped to handle the biological load of your aquarium. Large aquariums or Saltwater aquariums commonly use ‘sump’ style filter tanks. These Sump Style filters can be made in custom sizes to house pumps & equipment as well as service all the biological and chemical filtration needs of your tank. There are also options of having Refugiums, or combination Biological/Refugium tanks. You may also want to incorporate water make up tanks or mixing tanks, depending on the space you have allotted for the filtration. The size of your sump tank should allow for a percentage of flow back from the main tank in the event of power loss. Small sumps may fit in the space but be careful not to undersize your filtration. Standard filtration configuration is to place the filters & equipment underneath the aquarium. Give consideration to the amount of room you will need to house your filtration, equipment and supplies. If your tank is a built in model, you may decide to allow some side cupboards to be utilized as equipment storage.

Aquarium Illusions only carries Chillers we have experience with over many years and they have proven their reliability. We normally stock chillers of 1/4, 1/3, and ½ HP. If you require a chiller of ¾ HP or larger, we will order it in for you.
