Default What about this sump

I'm setting up a new 180 gal tank and was thinking of using the megaflow sumpAquarium Filtration: All-Glass Aquarium MegaFlow Sump Filter Wet/Dry Filter

It would model # 4 also using Aquac ev-240 AquaC EV-240 Protein Skimmer With Mag-Drive 18 Pump - Marine Depot - Marine and Reef Aquarium Super Store

What do you thimk of the sump and protein skimmer?

I purchased the 90 Gal All-glass Tank with megaflow system from Drs Foster & Smith, because I live in the "Middle of Nowhere" Montana. Great Tank I had to buy different lighting (Orbit Extreme 48" T-5 system (love it). My tank came with the Tidepool 2 and I added Turbo-XL Skimmer (replumbed the sump myself). I'm up and running for about 3 mos now. 0 NH3; 0 NO2; 0 NO3; Just beginning to see my coralline algae thrive.

I've had good luck also w/Marine Depot, esp. their customer service

You may want to look at Lifereef Filter Systems for some nice equipment as well. This guy can custom build a plug and play filtration system custom to your needs. It is not cheap, then again, nothing quality ever is. Hope this helps.
