Mikes 60 gallon corner

[WarDog]

50 gallon sump seems pretty big for a 60 gallon tank. My 60 gallon tank only had 15 gallons of water in the sump. Remember you want to leave room for when the pump turns off. You want to match your skimmers rating fairly close to your total water volume, if you go too big you will end up pulling nutrients out of the water too quickly. Reef Octopus makes reliable skimmers that won't break the bank, I'm extremely happy with my 110SS.

Oh i know I feel like a newbie again since taking a break for 8 years. this tank is a starter til i can get my salt game going at a good speed so that i can upgrade to a 8-10 footer that i will do up. thanks for the reply Warren.
