Lets see your fuge/sump pictures. I am looking at starting a 140 or 180 build and looking for different sump/fuge ideas and wanted to see the different levels of creativity. Thanks everyone.

Here is ours for 75g tank. The sump/refugium is rated for 200g
Not a good pic and it's just a very basic setup
This is the system we have ordered for our 150g setup. It's LifeReefugium II by LifeReef

The LifeReefugium looks like a great setup. Is it pretty costly?

Yep, it was something that hubby had to try to sell to me for a week. I'm still not comfortable with the deal, but what's done is done. Let's just put it this way that it costs more than our custom cabinet/canopy deal.

65 inches is needed if you keep the skimmer out of the sump.

Wow, I went to their site and it is nice. My price range for a fuge/sump is $900. Their setup is a little more than I can spend but I'm sure it will be worth it. I'm looking to get the ADHI 60 sump and maybe an ASM G4+ skimmer.

I wanted ADHI 60 with ASM or Euro-Reef! You may want to also look into H&S skimmers. They are more powerful than same rated ASM and E-R and if there is a height of skimmer issue, H&S is about 1.5 inches lower in height.

You can do better for less than the above setup. DIY sump/fuge using a 55 for under 200, an octopus skimmer for around 300, good return pump for about 150, some plumbing for lets say 50.00 ought to do it. So unless you just like to throw your money away.........
BAMMMO!
Of course finding a used 55 would help out some.
