okay, i am looking at this skimmer http://www.bigalsonline.com/BigAlsU...0330/cl0/aquariumsystemsvisijetproteinskimmer

my friend has it on his 29 and it it is taking about a cup of guck out a day. i would like to put in my 29 but i need to know if something will go wrong six months down the road because its junk.


also how big of a sump do you think would be good for a 29 semi reef? i have a 22 gallon tub right now i want to have a filter sock a refugiruem (sp????) and a return pump thats all i really need since i will be running an ac 50 or a penguin 200 also, for the sump i was thinking a 10 gallon since they are cheap,

return pump, i need one right now i have an ehime 1250 thats like 300 gph or so i think. i want like 500 gph so i can get a better turn over rate through the fuge.
 
as for a return pump i was thinking a quiet one 2200 or a Model 3000 because of the price and the gph per dolllar. any thoughts?
 
what kind of tank do you have? like a aquapod or biocube? or someting diff?
 
uhh i dont shop there, they treat their fish like $h!t


does it have curved corners and a built in filter in the back?
 
no it is a standard glass tank and i dont buy fish there unless no other lfs has them and they are cheaper than the lfs so i dont have much choice.

can any body who knows what they are talking about help?
