    Has anyone used one of these? I'm looking for an in sump skimmer with a small footprint, my intake section is only 7" wide. I have a 58gal tank with a 30gal sump. I've also looked at the ASM Mini-G, but not sure it would be big enough. I can do a HOB, but would prefer in sump.
    Thanks

    I've never heard of these before, but I am an exclusive distributor of carpenters custom internal and external overflows if your interested.

    http://www.superskimmer.com/SumpBuddy40.htm

    Its got a 4" x 7" foot print.

    I've been running this one for a while now... Just remember that you get what you pay for. It would be better to get a good quality piece of equipment that you can depend on, than having buyers remorse later on.

    Just looking at the website of the "exclusive" distributor i would be wary. IMO they look a little sketchy
