Hey all, I picked up a 60 gal rimless, corner drilled, going slow..... Anyways, space in cabinet is the issue. I could put the tank in the corner and run plumbing to basement thru a vent for anysize sump, or buy what looks like a perfect product. The "Somatic"
60, sump/skimmer . Would fit underneath. Does anyone on here have 1 ? Or had 1? What's ur opinion of it? Thank you, as always.
 
I have one but haven’t set it up yet. It’s basically a 16”x16” cube with the skimmer being about 22” tall. You’d just have to figure on your stand internal dimensions and door size to see if it will fit. If it’s a standard sized stand it should fit.

I have no review of it yet but when opening it up to inspect it, it looks and feels solid.

Sweet. Thank. It almost appears that I can put it in thru stand door and then turn it sideways to be under pre.drilled plumbing holes. If u get it running, let me know how it goes. Thanks. I'm either gonna get that or do a full blown sump in my basement thru the air vent in floor above . Hahahhahahha. But this item may be easier. I'd prefer to do a huge sump tho. Will c...
 
Will do. I’ll be doing another tank thread. I just visited my LFS and in February after taxes they are going to order me a Deep Blue 57 gallon RR rimless.
 
Just bought one for my 54 gallon corner tank. It's really the only sump that fits in the cabinet. Not sure when I'll get it running, still need to drill my tank. Wish me luck
 
Wow. Almost same setup. Lol. Can't wait .

Well car troubles happened so $1700 out the window. Had to settle for a 40 Breeder and an eShopps S overflow. Same footprint, just shorter. 16” rather than 20”. All I gotta do now is build a stand, drill and plumb.
