    Bought it as is.
    The size they make fit perfect for my tank so i really didnt need them to customize anything. the sump rocks to. so easy to maintain and zero microbubles to deal with.

    ive built my own before and the biofuge hands down beats anything ive built. its more expensive sure, but its totally worth it. im sure you will be more than happy with what he builds for ya.

    what is he custom doing to it? just the size? or is he adding probe holders ,cryptic fuge, ect.ect..

    Yeah just got off the phone with him and the skimmer area is going to be smaller then normal so the fuge area is larger and probe holders a few other things. Great guy really cares about the customers.
