Looking for a round ring filter sock holder for in the sump anyone got anything laying around?
I made mine,lowes sells acrylic/lexan,thats where i got mine
Let me know how much you need, i might have enough scrap
Maybe we can modify the one I have prob just take 2 small pieces to close in the gap
I can look around d shop what size Berlin did you have large small I take it it’s the round one?
The one that we have now is the rectangle one and am looking for something to accommodate the round socks, I believe they are 4 inch. I have two rectangle socks and a bunch of the short round ones it’s just a pain to have to clean socks every other day. I was good with the old set up with the round ones but since I switched over I’m not using the same set up so it does not work
I made a 9 or 10 inch sock holder for DPA once. just get a cheap 1/4 inch thick high density poly cutting board and cut out a hole just the right size, so the sock sits in it and the rim rests on the board. then build a pvc support cube to sit in the sump, and tie wrap the board to the top. works great. 4000 gph return pipe. been running there for a few years now on the coral system.

I gotta say thanks Ken took your idea , the wifes idea combined the 2, used an old bucket that didn’t hold water, cut the bottom out and works perfectly not beautiful but hey whatever and thanks to everyone else that replied
Nice. the bucket is a good idea too. It don’t have to be pretty, Just pass water!
