I am setting up an undrilled tank for my son and am looking for
recommendations.
He wants to have some corals (still undecided what types at this time)

I want to know my options. We have tried tanks with a hang on over flow with
bad results, so I want to stay away from this.
I am not sure I want to drill the tanks.

What other options do I have? In tank skimmer, hang on skimmer... Is there
some OTHER way to have a sump? One that is RELIABLE?

Looking for suggestions....

TIA
Mc

You say OverFlow box is out but not sure or want to drill. The next option
is pump by using water pump [not recommended]. The last option and maybe [I
think] is to get a predrill tank.
