My sump is 12" wide so it will not work.

I have been doing to reading on the MSX200 skimmer and I think I like it better than ATI.

Height: 22.75 inches
Body Diameter: 8 inches
Powered by a Sicce meshwheel pump, a pinwheel impeller is also included.
Footprint: 11.5 inches X 13.5 inches
These skimmers perform best when they sit in 8-10 inches of water
