Sump Media Basket, 5 Inch Chamber
This open media basket holds your own carbon, bio media, or filter floss in a sump. It is sized for a 5 inch chamber built from quarter inch glass, the standard most sumps use. The walls are slotted so water moves through the media, the floor has drain holes, and the flared rim rests on the chamber walls. We print in PETG. Aquarium keepers have used it submerged for years. Rinse before use.

Common questions
What size chamber does the basket fit?
It is sized for a chamber built from quarter inch glass, the standard most sumps use. The product page lists the basket's outside size.
What if my sump was built to its own size?
Then build the basket to match it. Our basket builder takes your chamber size and cuts a basket to it, printed to order.
What can I put in the basket?
Fill it with your own carbon, bio media, or filter floss. It is an open basket, so you choose the mix.
Will the basket fit an acrylic sump instead of glass?
The stock basket is sized to the quarter inch glass standard. Running acrylic or another thickness? Use the basket builder and enter your own chamber size.
