i found my RS 80 had best performance in 7-9" of water, any deeper and it wouldn't skim as well. bigger is always better when it comes to sumps, you never know what you want room for down the road. just try and get as big as you can possibly fit/afford and just make sure it is still easy to access all your equipment.

You don't have to set a skimmer right on the sump floor. Just get a plastic basket, ala milk crate or those green baskets mandarin oranges have been sold in,...cut accordingly,...and set the skimmer on that. This allows for more water in the sump. Just make sure you leave enough room for backflow, in the event of a power failure.
