This is our all new Double Filter Sock Holder 5 Chamber Sump/Refugium Pro
baffle kit for 55 gallon Aqueon tanks
Tank and Filter Socks Not Included **
This 55 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®
brand 55 gallon aquarium into a fully functioning 5 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
four included baffle plates can be used to divide the tank into distinct
sections for filter socks, two zones for a refugium or equipment like protein
skimmers or reactors, a bubble trap and your return pump.
Pro Line Kit Features:
Precision CNC milled from premium grade black and clear 1/4" cast acrylic
Fully assembled and Weld-On® cemented joints so the kit is ready to
silicone in the tank.
3 x 1" inlets allow for a complete bean animal setup
Side entry for inlet water allows filter socks to be changed with the pump
on.
Two 4" filter socks allow for extended time between sock changes
2nd baffle baffle provides extra sectioning options
Adjustable water level baffle to provide a 5.5" - 8", 6.25" - 10", 7.5" -
12" running depth.
Independent supports for supporting filter foam between the level
adjustment baffle and the bubble trap baffle.
Bubble trap plate to keep bubbles out of your return pump
Standard lid has three 1" pipe inlet and removable cover to keep salt creep
to a minimum.
Sock baffle height is below the rim of the tank and includes overflow slots
and a center recess to allow water to flow into the next chamber without
overflowing the tank should your socks become fully clogged.
Baffle width: 11.9" This kit includes:
Fully assembled double 4" sock holder. Joints are Weld-On bonded prior to
shipment for maximum strength and durability
8", 10" or 12" second baffle
5.5" - 8", 6.25" - 10" or 7.5" - 12" adjustable third baffle with 1/8"
slots for coarse water filtering and water depth adjustment
Bubble trap plate
Two 1" filter plates which can go in between the secondary baffle and
bubble trap plate. These units allow you to suspend filter foam between the two
plates to trap bubbles and particles escaping the main refugium/equipment
section. These are self supporting so the distance between the secondary baffle
and the bubble trap plate is not defined by the width of the filter plate
allowing you to set your place distance based on how much extra filter material
you'll need. Minimum distance is 1"

your tank is not an Aqueon or you don't know for sure, please contact us prior
to ordering with your tank inside dimensions. To measure the inside, use
calipers or trim a dowel rod or rigid piece of cardboard until it fits between
the front and back glass of the tank while parallel to the bottom. Message us
with that length and we can confirm if it will fit.
Custom kits made to your specifications are also available. No project is too
big or too small. Please contact us for a quote.
