    I am thinking about picking up this sump and fuge off of craigslist today but I had a question for you guys about it. I am used to seeing sump/fuge set up with three comparments, this one has 4. I have included a pic of it. Can you tell me how the set up would woek?

    Thanks

    not a 100% sure. but i belive going from left to right you have the intake area from tank where you can add bb`s or rock rubble,then next area for a skimmer,next area a fuge,then last area a return to your tank...again im not sure,hope someone else with a more input can chime in...good luck

    Thats exactly what I was thinking jkat21. You could switch the fuge and skimmer sections but that might cause issues with bubbles getting back to the tank.
