Man, I know there was a couple of extra luxuries in this system such as the custom rack for the marine pure blocks but the result is the sexiest sump on TH-cam. The sump is a display onto itself. Mesmerizing
Honestly this is one of the best well thought out filtration systems. What I really like is everything is all contained underneath the tank. Everything looks to be accessible. The custom additions are great. Very nice.
always learn so much by watching sump setup videos... love that the GEO sump system is very functional 1st while also being aesthetically pleasing to eye and highly customizable. Very Nice Travis!
What an incredible and well thought out filtration system. Love the red white and blue color scheme. I dont think i have said it yet but Thank You Travis for your service to our country! 👊👊
WOW...Nice build...Looking to upgrade from a Eshopps ADV 200 ...came across the Geo 30R Pro...and your video....Man, so much questions and inspiration...I am using the Neptune COR 20, are you running your Return Pump at 100% to support the various fluidizers...
Wow didn't notice that. Yup lol. At the end of the day i want you to know that i have been watching you for a while now and i have learned a lot from you. I thank you for that. And thank you for your dedication to us.
Yr the one I learn from, I've been watching u for a long time, I have a 75g now that needs to be upgraded, so I wanna do it better next time. 3yrs into satlwater
Your sump is gorgeous, love love the red white and blue. You’re saying you have low nutrients but you also said you have gfo running through one of the reactors. Maybe I’m mistaken about your use of gfo. I took my gfo out so I can have a little p04. Thanks for this and all your videos
I am having no success with grow lights .. I'm interested in your reef brights...what exactly are they and where to get them?your tank is amazing and so bloody clean...wish mine was half as clean.
Really nice set up brother, from the 125 to this is nice! Not that the 125 was not. Wouldn't it be a good idea if you had your cal reactor dripping into your fuge? The algae loves excess co2.
Awesome setup! Nice layout. The Jeabo seems out of its league, I expected a Red Dragon or something. I am building a Geos Reef inspired DIY sump. Breaking in the CNC router. Thanks for the inspiration.
Mind sharing what type of plumbing you use to connect the Black ball valves to the pcp, there is obviously a reducing busing. The black stuff is like lawn irrigation pieces. Is it just threaded into the reducer (pipe thread) thanks
How do you figure out how to hook everything up, I'm so confused, I don't even know which way the water is flowing. I'm new to the hobby and I'm slowly learning but your system scares me. But I love your knowledge of this hobby, keep up the good work and keep them videos coming.
Great video. Thank you. Have you ever thought about not running filter socks? I've seen huge improvements on skim and refugium growth after removing them. They just seem like a double condom, imho. You have the biological more than covered with rock, pure, skimmer, fuge... let it work. If you're not pulling and replacing everyday, I don't see a benefit.
Great video! Really enjoyed the sump walkthrough. I truly appreciate the planning that went into your sump build. Great work. Your reactors looked empty. Is that because your nutrients are already very low? Interested to see your triton test results related to the marinepure blocks.
Another great video Travis, thank you for that. I'm interested in your take on UV Sterilizers, I see you run one, it seems like it`s almost 50/50 on people that swear by them and people that say they are a waste. Do you use it to target algae or water borne pathogens?
Do you have any advice on replacing my clients Reef tanks such as the Red Sea Reefer 250, 350 all the way up to the 750 series? We are looking for a drop in replacement that can accommodate the stock plumbing.
Quick question mate, First superb looking custom sump, man Geo did a really nice job! Anyways, I see that you are running 3.15inch drains but you have 2 Cepex 1.5'' ball valves on each drain, why did you go with two instead of just 1 1.5 Spears Gate valve to control your main drain... Looks like you have Ball Valves on your secondary as well any reason for that and the reason why I asked is I am getting ready to hard plumb my Synergy 20'' External Overflow box that has 3.15'' drains but I was only going to use one Spears Gate Valve for more precise control sort of speak.
It doesn't impact the reading as the water is already past the probe before its heated and returned to the tank.... its not back flowing to the temp prob haha

Hey Travis, nice sump and clean setup! Impressed by the lack of microbubbles. I'm planning a similar sized system - what does your daily evaporation average?
Okay so I'm new to saltwater and have what I think might be a very stupid question. The skimmer, everything I've read says that water is sucked in through the upper portion of the bubble chamber then skimmed through (if you're using a counter current method) then sent back out through the bottom. On yours though, I don't really see anything that could be making it go in through the top. And even if it does you said that same chamber of the sump flows into the next. So would it not be dumping skimmed water right back into an area of unskimmed water, having it flow into the area, into the display, then back again to repeat that? Or is that the point? It's frustrating that the only part of the skimmer I don't understand is quite possibly the simplest.
I'm upgrading to a 220g, I want this exact sump set up. Can u tell me the detentions of the sump and then how much room total of the size of the stand? How can I get this custom made like yrs? Money no option.
Has anyone put together a video on efficient, low lower cost), lower maintenance reef tanks in the 100-150 gallon size? What equipment used? Can this even be done?
Not sure I would want those giant USA letters all over my sump. Like Geo we know who you are dude, you don't need to tell us where the sump was made. Ok NVM I see the customer wanted it made that way, I guess we have our very own Captain America in the fish keeping hobby lol.

That is a awesome looking sump and Geo is a genius because that sump is a work of art.
Ita not my.sump and i felt.like clapping and cheering at the end.
Man your sump is really 1st class
I am building my 1st sump

Yes this is well set up you must of had a blue print on the setup 👍.i don't see why anyone would give thumb down.
Very organized. Kudos to you👍✅
Great setup. Best sump ive seen
Really cool setup man. Now we have had a closer look I can see why you have left it open 👍
Absolutely badass! I wouldn't change anything about it. It’s perfect
Man that’s about the coolest set up ever. I’m getting ready to do my first. Hope it turns out as good as that. Nice job.
Nice video, amazing looking sump. What is the footprint and height of the area underneath the tank? Is that a custom GEO sump?
Always look forward to your uploads,concise with no bs.
Great video brother every reefers dream 🤙🏽🙏🏼🙌🏽
Very Nice Setup I do enjoy your Videos
Very nice all in one sump setup, has everything integrated into! Keep up the great videos!
love the setup, hope one day to get set up like this and knowledgeable like you! Love the videos
That is a beautiful sump
Wow didn't notice that. Yup lol. At the end of the day i want you to know that i have been watching you for a while now and i have learned a lot from you. I thank you for that. And thank you for your dedication to us.
Nice setup
Will my left arm be enough or do I need to include my right leg for payments?
Sweet build !!
Very well planned out looks great. I'm sure to do this when I get a 280 or bigger
Good Job looks great..
Yr the one I learn from, I've been watching u for a long time, I have a 75g now that needs to be upgraded, so I wanna do it better next time. 3yrs into satlwater
Nice set up love it how do you have you calcium reactor connected to your system
Your sump is gorgeous, love love the red white and blue. You’re saying you have low nutrients but you also said you have gfo running through one of the reactors. Maybe I’m mistaken about your use of gfo. I took my gfo out so I can have a little p04. Thanks for this and all your videos
Great setup.
I am having no success with grow lights .. I'm interested in your reef brights...what exactly are they and where to get them?your tank is amazing and so bloody clean...wish mine was half as clean.
Nice sump! I love your equipment selection. It doesn't really look like you need the gfo and the refugium though.
That is a pimping sump! Hoping one day to get myself a Geo dual chamber calcium reactor :) just like yours would be perfect haha
How about a concurrent return pump as back up? I had some issues with Jebao pump failures, but they are cheap to replace.
Really nice set up brother, from the 125 to this is nice! Not that the 125 was not. Wouldn't it be a good idea if you had your cal reactor dripping into your fuge? The algae loves excess co2.
It is and was talked about in the video
Awesome setup! Nice layout. The Jeabo seems out of its league, I expected a Red Dragon or something. I am building a Geos Reef inspired DIY sump. Breaking in the CNC router. Thanks for the inspiration.
How do you connect to your aquarium? I am a newbie to the hobby
I have no idea what those Neptune modules do are they like a battery backup? I'm lost please let me know the advantages
Beautiful setup
Mind sharing what type of plumbing you use to connect the Black ball valves to the pcp, there is obviously a reducing busing. The black stuff is like lawn irrigation pieces. Is it just threaded into the reducer (pipe thread) thanks
Wow! Awesome sump! This puts my sump to shame. Lol.

Great video. Thank you.
Have you ever thought about not running filter socks?
I've seen huge improvements on skim and refugium growth after removing them. They just seem like a double condom, imho. You have the biological more than covered with rock, pure, skimmer, fuge... let it work. If you're not pulling and replacing everyday, I don't see a benefit.
Socks are a big part of this system and I'll talk about why in another video
Looks amazing
Beautiful tank and sump I love these videos! Quick question, if you take the uv offline, will that help fix your pale macro algae?
Great video! Really enjoyed the sump walkthrough. I truly appreciate the planning that went into your sump build. Great work. Your reactors looked empty. Is that because your nutrients are already very low? Interested to see your triton test results related to the marinepure blocks.
Very nice set up in that sump, is amazing, I have a question for you about the UV light, how long you keep it ON
I hear different things about putting a 2nd chamber on the CaRx. Some say it is not necessary. your thoughts?
Another great video Travis, thank you for that. I'm interested in your take on UV Sterilizers, I see you run one, it seems like it`s almost 50/50 on people that swear by them and people that say they are a waste. Do you use it to target algae or water borne pathogens?

Doing my research on a sump. Spoke with GEO. Is this sump really quiet?
Quick question mate, First superb looking custom sump, man Geo did a really nice job! Anyways, I see that you are running 3.15inch drains but you have 2 Cepex 1.5'' ball valves on each drain, why did you go with two instead of just 1 1.5 Spears Gate valve to control your main drain...

Put ur heaters next to the return pump and keep the thermometer in its place
To keep the whole tank at the same temperature not the sump only
It doesn't impact the reading as the water is already past the probe before its heated and returned to the tank.... its not back flowing to the temp prob haha

Hey Travis, nice sump and clean setup! Impressed by the lack of microbubbles. I'm planning a similar sized system - what does your daily evaporation average?
So the the tank looks better under the tank. hope by now you have the main display looking as good as the over priced geo Money pit!
Over Priced? Who Said I Paid Anything? No Hate Geo Makes Good Shit
Okay so I'm new to saltwater and have what I think might be a very stupid question. The skimmer, everything I've read says that water is sucked in through the upper portion of the bubble chamber then skimmed through (if you're using a counter current method) then sent back out through the bottom.

I'm upgrading to a 220g, I want this exact sump set up. Can u tell me the detentions of the sump and then how much room total of the size of the stand? How can I get this custom made like yrs? Money no option.
Excellent system, I need to purchase some of the accessories for my aquarium. Kindly get in touch
Also, why run gfo if you grow chaeto? Proper chaeto growth will lower nitrate (very little), and also phosphate. Grab a kessel.
So you use gfo Carbon a skimmer and a refugium?
Hey fish, would you test the bright well bio/no3 media blocks if you do away with the marine pure blocks?
Has anyone put together a video on efficient, low lower cost), lower maintenance reef tanks in the 100-150 gallon size? What equipment used? Can this even be done?
Watch my 125 gallon playlist that's low $ and diy
Nice !!!
What's the price of this sump?
Lindo aquário
Not sure I would want those giant USA letters all over my sump. Like Geo we know who you are dude, you don't need to tell us where the sump was made.
Ok NVM I see the customer wanted it made that way, I guess we have our very own Captain America in the fish keeping hobby lol.
Putting ur thermometer next to the heater lol USA!
