    I didnt see anything about a sump, I do believe what they are selling is a skimmer, designed to be used in a sump. no sump included.

    It looks like a nice skimmer, but I am in no position to give any advice on skimmers as I dont even have my Reef Tank set up yet.

    Looks like a good skimmer, but I didn't see where a sump is part of the deal. Looks like a large foot print for a skimmer that is rated for 100 gals. I currently am using the Aqua C Remora and couldn't be happier...I have a 55 gal tank right now and will be converting to a 90 gal. and will keep my skimmer the same. I am going to be utilizing a refugium with macro algae to help in the removal of phosphate and nitrate so my skimmer won't need to be so large.....something to consider and more like nature in my opinion. If you want help on this look up "Tangster" that dude is on the ball with many topics, but he knows his stuff when it comes to refugiums....all of this is my opinion though, and you should make the right decision for you and your inhabitants...
