I am having trouble Pu lling the trigger on a skimmer. I had settled on a circulating skimmer so I could use my limited sump as a huge. After reading I'm concerned of the danger of a flood with the recirculating type. The problem I can see with in sump is that i dont have auto top off and if I understand right that makes the skimmer go crazy from evap. What should I do here? I need a game plan.
 
The only chamber of your sump that should change levels is the one with the return pump. You dont want your skimmer in that chamber because of the fluctuations in water level. If you keep it in a different chamber it shouldn't be a problem for you
