    Like I said a minute ago I hate Micro-Bubbles so I am going to build a sump and put the skimmer in thier. Can someone give me step by step directions in doing that. I want to use a 20 gallon glass tank. By the way I have a hob refugium already!

    You can use this design. I originally built it to use a a refugium, but you could use it as a sump. The compartment should be large enough for your skimmer, and the return chamber is baffled to prevent bubbles from entering it/your tank.
