whats the pros and cons.......... when dealin with a sump

 

[maeistero]

if you have one, you're nearly a pro.
if you don't have one, then get ready to become a con to pay for all the other filters & refugiums.
if you don't have a tank yet, i'd spend the extra to get a drilled one and go for it. it's worth it.
there's really no cons. you'd have to clean filters more than your sump system.

Pros...
More water volume
hides heater and filter and protein skimmer
easier to dose additives into a sump
better oxygenation
usually more filtration
optional fuge
Cons...
expensive to purchase
takes up a lot of room under the tank
must know/understand plumbing them in.

Do yourself a favor and buy a tank that already has overflow boxes in them.
