Working on trying to lay out all the equipment under my 93 cube stand. The space under the stand is so limited and I am not sure the best way to place things. I am trying to figure out which way to turn my sump and where to put a carbon/gfo reactor. I have to fit my apex as well as an ATO under there also. It is a very tight setup and i figured i would run it by all of you before i create myself a maintenance nightmare. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Looks really tight to me. I would go with a smaller sump and turned 90 degrees to the way you have it so I could easily reach all the compartments. OR... if possible relocate the sump to another location.

Unfortunately i am in an apartment so I dont have many options. Everything has to be under the stand.

It is going to be difficult to get the drain line into the sump You will need to turn the sump around so it is a straight fall not a long 90 degree.

Put the carbon/gfo as high as you can inside the stand.

IF I turn the sump around that puts the filter sock in the back of the stand. Am I creating a maintenance nightmare by having the sock in the back? To be honest I have never been very good about sock changes and just wasn't sure how big of a hassle it would be with the sock at the back.
