Well I FINALLY got my Pro-Clear Flex 400 Sump/Refugium in today after almost a month of waiting. All in all this is pretty sweet! Sump size is 42" x 16" x 16", and the convertible refugium chamber is 14-3/8" x 15-3/4" x 14". The bad news is that it came in with a chip st a top corner, and a scratch on the bottom. I did take pics of it all, and it is a little disappointing. I will be calling Pro Clear tomorrow about it. What really concerns me is that Aquadirect.com, whom I ordered this through, no longer lists this item.

I did not think they would be of much help though as Aquadirect was less than friendly when I called to inquire why it was taking almost a month to get an item that states it ships 2-3 business days. Incidentally, Aquadirect is really Champion lighting, whom I used to like until this incident. I recommend using other vendors to anyone out there. I got a very "we could care less" attitude from them.

In the interim, I am seeing if it still holds water as the crack is in a place where it does not impeded function, however I will not accept as is for full price. Since it was 100 bucks in shipping, I will see what they will do about it and let everyone know.

 EDIT: Now another dilemma. The way my stand is configured It is 3/4" shy of allowing me to get the sump under arrgh! It is a 24.5" wide stand..the sump is 16 wide..BUT..with the 42" length it does not clear the center weight bearing posts..I did not account for the loss of 1.5" from that. Man o Man....silly me! Now I have to either cut a side panel off and slip it in, or use the original stand which I repaired. I am no carpenter, so cutting the side and having a usable panel to put a hidden European hinge on is beyond me. Anyone know how to do this?
