In tank sump

If that's where you want it, then go for it, but also
consider that 2 40 gallon tanks are cheaper than 1 80
gallon tank. ie that realistate will cost you more per
gallon than a tank on the bottom.

IMO To accomplish what you described, wont it be better to use closed-loop
for circulation and a hang on skimmer? this way you 're not going to lose
1' of precious real-estate.


The sump uses up real estate (water volume) no matter where you put it.
The reason I want a sump in the first place is because I hate "hang on"
anythings.
