Hey guys, back again looking for more great advice. Im in the process of planning out and setting up a 180g reef aquarium. I had every intention of building my own sump but am deciding to just purchase one. Any recommendations on the Skimz UP36 vs Skimz UP39? Id like to go with the UP36 just to save a little cash but I'm worried its not big enough. Any input is appreciated.

Base the sump size on the footprint(s) of equipment you plan to place into it. Most notably skimmer and return pump.
