    I am looking into getting a small skimmer/refuge for my 10 gallon. Since being in college and moving a ton from apartment to apartment every year, I put all the other upgrades/builds on hold. I plan on just "pimping" out my ten with stuff that can go on a 40 later. ;D

    How would this do? I know nothing about it.

    Thanks.

    Edit: Sorry I forgot to say this is going on a 20 gallon long sump under the tank.

    It will be for a ten yes, but I want it to work well on a 40 gallon too. Will this be fine?
