With a three-chamber design, it supports various setups including Refugium, Wet/Dry, and Berlin configurations. Constructed from robust acrylic, this sump is compatible with Aqueon Submersible Utility Pumps, making it an ideal choice for both novice and experienced aquarium enthusiasts. ## Description With aesthetically appealing, clean-line designs, all ProFlex models are manufactured using extremely durable materials, and include a lifetime warranty against leaks. As water enters the ProFlex, it flows through a revolutionary bubble diffuser chamber where bubbles are expelled, significantly reducing noise. After water flows through the bubble chamber, it flows through two 200 micron filter socks to remove large particulate. Add a refugium light to create a thriving refugium for your reef aquarium. Live rock and certain plants/algae help control excess nutrients that may hinder the growth of corals in the main aquarium. Using the BioMedia Accessory Pack, turn the ProFlex into a traditional wet/dry trickle filter. Great for use in freshwater and fish-only saltwater applications to provide advanced biological filtration for a heavy fish load. Ideal for reef applications where utilization of a large protein skimmer is imperative. The expansive sump chambers allow for placement of a large protein skimmer and a constant water level. ## Features - Three chambered system allows for filtration flexibility - Setup options: Refugium, Wet/Dry, Berlin - Constructed of durable acrylic - Constructed of durable acrylic - Sumps work with Aqueon Submersible Utility Pumps ## Images ![Aqueon ProFlex Sump Model 1, 44-55-Gallon - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61lLuLawbOL.jpg) ![Aqueon ProFlex Sump Model 1, 44-55-Gallon - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615oxcw1cKL.jpg) ![Aqueon ProFlex Sump Model 1, 44-55-Gallon - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611zMlaA8DL.jpg) ![Aqueon ProFlex Sump Model 1, 44-55-Gallon - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616X4EMZDTL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Once you figure it all out though it works great! Mine is cycling my tank every six minutes ... *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2016* Very hard to set up if you've never set a sump up before. More equipment is needed; Protein Skimmerw/ pump, Return pump, all hoses, you also have to buy and hanging overflow, if the pluming of the tanks isn't already there.Once you figure it all out though it works great! Mine is cycling my tank every six minutes which is very fast. I'm considering scheduling the return pump with a timer, so it will shut of for hours at a time and allow the protein skimmer to clean the water.Five stars because of the improvement in water quality of the take, ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars a bit small *by C***. on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2014* I am building a 55 gal reef and I thought this sump would be perfect. as other reviews have said it is a bit small. the refugium area could be bigger as well as the utility box. There is barely enough room for a return and a hang on protein skimmer. if I wanted the skimmer in the sump, it would be imposible. also the down draft sleeve pipe and final baffle had been broken free of the box. it still held water so I just got some aquarium sealant and glued them back.if you plan on buying this sump, it works great! but follow the golden rule of aquariums and go one size bigger to the model 2. if I replace this sump in the future I will get the model 2 as well ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars this product does not appear to be of good workmanship. The edged were bubbled and not smooth ... *by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2015* I received the product very quickly and it appeared undamaged on the outside of the package but when I unpacked the sump there was considerable damage to the item. It was unusable as the inlet standpipe was separated from the sump and barrier wall between the refugium and return chamber was also separated from the sump walls at the top. There was damage at the bottom of the first chamber in the form of splintering. Other than the damage, this product does not appear to be of good workmanship. The edged were bubbled and not smooth at all. One corner was sanded or filed off. The acrylic is very thin as well. I am in the process of returning this product for a refund and would not recommend it to anyone. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2357302-aqueon-proflex-sump-model-1-44-55-gallon](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/2357302-aqueon-proflex-sump-model-1-44-55-gallon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
