When buy a sump for under my stand do I have to be able to remove it (for cleaning maybe?)while tank is going? I would like to get a descent size one but then I'd be unable to take it out when tank is setup.

Thanks! thats what I thought. I did see somewhere once where a guy said you had to be able to remove them periodically for cleaning

as long as you can get to your skimmer and fit in your equipment its all good

Its a Red Sea Berlin skimmer under a All Glass - Modern Series stand so its gonna be a tight one but it will work. I do have a 30''l x 12"w acrylic wetdry filter w/bioballs but I'm gonna look for something bigger for a 120gal and to have a refugium in sump
