I will be using a 75 gallon to make the sump. the inside numbers I got or as follows. 47 long, 17 1/4 front to back, 19 1/2 tall.

I would like to have a skimmer, and some reactors... Maybe.

Is there any thing I should be thinking about.

I am thinking of making the first chamber bigger to put the skimmer in that section, and then flow into the filter socks.

Any thoughts?
