@Dexter Dylan I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thank you for this video. This helped me do the same thing to my AR-300. I was wondering if you have any video as of it actually filtering the water? Did this end out turning out the way you wanted it to work. I can’t wait to get my first roller mat working. Saying goodbye to filter socks.
Only great thing about this pandemic is having extra time to slowly watch all of your old videos and take some notes. Have you always been a DIY person or did you have some skill level before hand, making mods and such alittle less intimidating?
I like building things. When I was young I loved to take things apart and figure out how they work... so most things are not to hard to figure out.. and hey if someone else can figure it out why can’t I?! ;)
Nice mod. I am going to probably do that with a Trigger 39 sump I have that has been sitting for a while now. I plan on cutting the sock holder out even though its brand new once I do my bigger tank. I do currently have a Sk-5000 on my current system and you will find out the frustration I have with having the part that is screwed on the back of the sk-5000 lines up with the line that you now can't see for the used roll.
Thanks! as for changing the roll i see your point! Can you just slide the roll off leaving it attached? May solve that issue .. or maybe ill glue a tiny mirror to the back of the stand for alignment :P
@@ReefDudes The mirror idea for sure has me intrigued. Never thought about that. The other issue I have is I can never just slide off the roll for whatever reason makes me a little angry but I have had to unwind it off the roll every single time. I can't seem to figure out my issue so as of right now that will not work. If you have any tips as to why the paper will not slide off let me know very frustrating.
@@freedomaquatics6328 its right as its constantly compressing but i can generally put my thumb on the center motor part and slide the external sleeve/roll off
I was really amazed how well you did with the fit of the filter roller as that was a genius way to route the feed pipe. I am so excited to see this thing get going :)
Pretty sweet little sump for sure! I’m considering that filter roller..and was curious about having the siphonic drain connected directly to Clarisea intake. Does that have an affect on purging air out of the drain line when return pump turns back on?
Super nice! How did you attach the magnet to your dosing pump? Is there anything inside the dosing pump that could react negatively to the magnetic field?
The housing is metal so it just worked! (super easy!) I dont believe the magnets should have a negative impact on anything as i have mounted many pieces of gear this way on my prior tanks.,
Planning on doing this exact mod but I have a question. What do you have draining into the second pipe? I have a single durso style overflow so I'm not sure what I would put to fill up that chamber. I don't plan on using a refugium but would still like that chamber to fill with water for my algae scrubber.
@@ReefDudes with having only one drain line how would you recommend I get my refugium chamber to fill up? since there won't be any water in that first chamber with using the clarisea. I was thinking of either T'ing off of my main drain Into the second drain or drilling some holes from the filter sock chamber into the refugium chamber. Any ideas ?
The whole system looks amazing but 2 questions, do you think cleaning under the fuge area is going to be possible and what tool did you use to cut for the roller
@@ReefDudes that's good to know, I might grab one of those, it looked like something people use to cut drywall. Maybe different blades for different surfaces. I'm sure you'll figure out something amazing to clean that area, snails are probably a great idea
Awesome vid! Super helpful Devin. Do you have any recommendations for a sump that would fit a RS peninsula 500 and accommodate the Clarisea 5000 without requiring DIY, drilling, and so forth? Essentially looking for a peninsula friendly sump that will take a roller filter nicely :)
Look at the "triton method" sumps as the tend to have big open spaces in the first chamber. RS doesn't list the external sump dimensions so you will have to measure but for a few ideas www.saltwateraquarium.com/filtration/refugium-sumps/sumps/?aff=8
Might not be a bad idea to paint or seal the back of the cabinet. it does not look like solid wood and would not want it coming apart and weaken the stand
Hey Deven, been watching your videos for a little while now and love them. Very informative. This office tank build looks awesome and cant wait to see it loaded with livestock. Do you have any concerns with the waste side of the rollermat rubbing on the side of the stand? Maybe it is just the filming angle, but the video makes it look like it may be a bit too close when it gets close to time to change to.a clean roll. I dont imagine the motor on that is strong enough to overcome that type of friction and may stop it from operating correctly?
Looking awesome, great job as always ,don’t forget your safety protection devices mask, gloves and eye protection.😎 .what ato are you running on your nano cube ?
ReefDudes thanks was looking at that , the duetto dual sensor , but read to many reviews and heard about issues with it sticking open. But I know not all reviews are accurate due to human err. Lol. thanks for such a quick response...
Its an Oscillating Multi-Tool super handy for cutting different things www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=as_li_qf_sp_sr_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=reefdudes-20&keywords=Oscillating Multi-Tool&index=aps&camp=1789&creative=9325&linkCode=xm2&linkId=32fb2ad4a673f82ef7dac5305d8763e0
Great Video - Any updates on the Eshopps sump modification? How did you determine what height to use for the filter roller? After using it for a while, would you recommend the Eshopps sump?
@@ReefDudes I have a Cad Lights 70g tank which is 36". I wanted a 24" sump to save on real estate. The Eshopps R100 only has a 4" sock (opening too small), the ADV-100 is 24" and has a 7" RECTANGLE sock (hole still too small), looks like I have to go with the R-200 30" with the 7" circle sock. That's the only one with an opening big enough to modify. You rock. Your vids have been helpful. Thank for Sharing.
@@ReefDudes I just realized that only part (seemingly half) of the flow from the tank is going thru the filter roller. And it seems like your second drain pipe is fed directly into drain chamber, thus feeding into the refugium (unfiltered). I noticed this as I was setting up my tank, which has a Herbie overflow and only one drain. I planned to bypass the drain chamber and go thru the wall, as you did, but then I realized that there would be no water in the drain chamber, and no water going to the refugium. Your thoughts?
@@DartFrogDojo you prob could let it fill the back columns and most will go to the filter, som ewill overflow out (dont connect the pipe but just have the bulkhead into the back)
@@ReefDudes Ha - I just read your reply. Been working on this all day and I came up with the same idea. :-D Gonna use 1.25 threaded bulkheads to connect the overflow chamber to the filter roller. I'm using the Bubble Magus medium roller, which has an exposed motor. So, the bulkhead for the filter roller intake will be only a few inches below the overflow. I plan to do a forum and video build thread. Thanks again Deven.
Man that looks epic!! Great mods, definitely still looks factory with the Clarisea in there. The build is coming together nicely!
Thanks Jeff! Many hours of pondering to figure out my game plan but it’s coming together nicely !
Daily Reefing Well there goes the warranty LOL no it looks good man can’t wait to see it with water

Thats for including the work you did when you modified it. Hate when folks do the mods without actually showing what you did. This is a helpful video.
Looks clean. Can appreciate the multiple water flow channels.
You made it look so easy 😳. Great video Devin!
Hehehe accelerated version! Thanks!
Great job tank is going to look good 👍
This is an awesome build!! Definitely looking forward to seeing it up and running
Thanks Robert! I can’t wait!
Looks great.
I get to play with the ClariSea 5000 this coming Sunday. Gave me some ideas, thanks
Happy to help! :)
Looking good Deven!
Thanks kev!!
What a beautiful design!!
I have the older version of that sump and they definitely improved on the original design! Definitely a 👍 on the Filter Roller 😁
Thank you for this video. This helped me do the same thing to my AR-300. I was wondering if you have any video as of it actually filtering the water? Did this end out turning out the way you wanted it to work. I can’t wait to get my first roller mat working. Saying goodbye to filter socks.
That thing looks nice. I may just have to get one. Love the video Dev.😊😊
Thanks Yohan !!
hey deven. i know this is an old vid, but what drill bits/ saw did you use to cut through the acrylic?
The flat blade was a oscillating saw the hole was Jsut a normal drill bit. Was messy to cut. Make sure you do it outside :)
@@ReefDudes thank you! 🤙🏾
Look forward to seeing it all working.
Looking good!! 👏🏽😊👍🏽

I’m considering that filter roller..and was curious about having the siphonic drain connected directly to Clarisea intake. Does that have an affect on purging air out of the drain line when return pump turns back on?
Nope. No issues there
Hi devin love the mod what size plumbing pipes did you use for the main and return
I believe it was 1” drain and 3/4 return
Instead of hanging the FR can we not remove the whole white wall and connect drains directly ???
Super nice! How did you attach the magnet to your dosing pump? Is there anything inside the dosing pump that could react negatively to the magnetic field?
The housing is metal so it just worked! (super easy!) I dont believe the magnets should have a negative impact on anything as i have mounted many pieces of gear this way on my prior tanks.,
Guys. Remember we LOVE the ocean. Please please please don't rinse plastic shaving down the drain which inevitably end up in the ocean!
How does this return water to the refugium? I don’t understand how it gets water back into the chamber that you plumbed past.
Good call with the Magnet on the Kamoer. I also have a metal stand.... hmmmmmmmm another idea from ReefDudes
Happy to help :)
hi deven, if i may ask, what saw & tools did you use to trim the acrylic portions or make that bottom bulkhead for the filter roller?
oscillating saw
Planning on doing this exact mod but I have a question. What do you have draining into the second pipe? I have a single durso style overflow so I'm not sure what I would put to fill up that chamber. I don't plan on using a refugium but would still like that chamber to fill with water for my algae scrubber.
Second pipe is my trickle drain.
@@ReefDudes with having only one drain line how would you recommend I get my refugium chamber to fill up? since there won't be any water in that first chamber with using the clarisea. I was thinking of either T'ing off of my main drain Into the second drain or drilling some holes from the filter sock chamber into the refugium chamber. Any ideas ?
Does that filter after the refugium block the copopods from getting into your tank from the refuguim?
The whole system looks amazing but 2 questions, do you think cleaning under the fuge area is going to be possible and what tool did you use to cut for the roller
Cleaning under it would be a pain. I would employ some snails. The tool was an oscillating multi tool. Super handy
@@ReefDudes that's good to know, I might grab one of those, it looked like something people use to cut drywall. Maybe different blades for different surfaces. I'm sure you'll figure out something amazing to clean that area, snails are probably a great idea
Can you hear any water from where the refugium empty's into return compartment?
Do you have issues with micro bubbles on this sump? I have the same one and can’t get rid of them.
Like I said I was looking forward to seeing this tank getting wet and underway. Love the progress so far.. @fellowreefer
It’s close!! Hopefully this week
Hey Devin! Where are these sumps made?
Very good question.. and I have no idea! i know eshoops is in California but i suspect they are made overseas.. not 100% though.

Do you have a vedio on how to hard plum a tank instead of those wet/dry tubing (flex)
Sure do! ua-cam.com/video/uMut5K1D6p4/v-deo.html
Looks sweet!!
Do u have enough space on the dirty side of the roller to the inside wall?
Hopefully!!! I “think so”
But will find out as the roll fills :p. I could almost shimmy the tank and desk right a smidge if needed
Might not be a bad idea to paint or seal the back of the cabinet. it does not look like solid wood and would not want it coming apart and weaken the stand
It was painted the next morning :). Bugged me to not matching! Then again I finished filming it at midnight so was a late night!
Which size Vector Return pump are you using with the sump?
I have a R200, and looking for DC pump.
I believe I was using a vectra M2 on that tank as I would have already has it. Either that or a s2 would work well

I wont have sides on the stand so should be issue free.. as long as its not touching the wall it should be safe!

What did you use to cut out the sump in min 3:55? Did you use a dermal or what and also what blade did you use as well?

How do u like the reactor been think about picking one up
The nyos torq? I like it. much cleaner than having plumbing and what not. I find it works best with larger size media.
Yeah that’s what I gathered. With the media carbon what about gfo are usually use Bulkreef Supply’s carbon and gfo
Are you running the Clarisea And a new tank upstairs
@@jasoncruz3506 I bought one for it.. will be soon! changing ou tot a custom sump soon so have been avoiding changing the plumbing twice.. soon!

Hello,which model is the Clarissa?? 300 or 500
5000
hey man.
is it the Vectra L or M over there ?
I know its a old vid but do u still use the nyos torq are they any good i need a new reactor
I use a 120 nyos skimmer for a few years now which is ace
Yes, im still using it on my frag tank. I use it for carbon, and i put GFO in a bag ontop of it.
looking at doing the same mod, is that the 5000 or the 3000?
Dragon Slayer that’s the 5000. 3k would have likely been less work
That sump is so sick that it’s ill...👍🏽
Made me cringe when you started cutting up that beautiful new sump, but came out really nice!
Hehehe me tooo! Thank you!
How much that cost brotha
Looking beautifyl but I have to say the bare wood back in the stand is slight cringe alert ;)
hahah I painted the front half of if white this morning :P That was at about midnight last night when i filmed the end and started to edit
Dont forger properly eye protection and mask when sanding or cutting Acrylic.
Wise advice!
@@ReefDudes acrylic shaving and dust do not go well with lungs and eyes
@@harkinsaquatics I would agree, wasnt those nicest thing on my hands either!
