as im getting ready for an upgrade, id like to keep everything simple (read clean and efficient).
although my future move is a consideration, what is my main motivation is to have a very organized under tank operation. obviously, a smaller sump would give me a lot more room under the 65g to work with.
so i can either go with a 20g (or smaller) sump that will just house the skimmer, or do a 29g sump with all the baffles, ruble, etc that are associated with it.
i would prefer the smaller sump as i cold then organize all my other gizmos and supplies in the stand as well, but wonder what benefits or negatives i will encounter.
the tank will be amied at zoas, lps, and afew hardy sps at the top. with just a few small fish and inverts (shrimp/crabs) to addd some movement and color. i will be moving soon and traveling occasionaly there after , so stability and hardiness are key.
so, how good is a fugeless sump?
