Sump help

[Robert Greene]

Been in the hobby a few years. finally upgrading and getting rid of the HOB system. Got my hands on a 93G cube with overflow. The usable space underneath in the stand is 20X20. So not much room to work. Any ideas on what to do without breaking the bank? since i will have to buy a new skimmer and return pump i want to save wherever i can.

I know trigger makes cube sumps. Not the cheapest but may fit the bill.

You can search for the Red Sea E-170 sump kit. It will fit ok.

I have the same tank and at first used an Eshopps sump that kind of stuck out in the back a little but then wanted a bigger sump for refugium + more working space (cube stands are really cramped). Since tank was in basement in front of furnace room, I drilled a hole thru the wall for pipes and now using a DIY 29G tall aquarium sump hidden behind the wall. No more tight working space, so much more convenient. If this is not an option, not much choice but having to buy a cube sump or if u don't mind leaving stand a bit away from wall, can use a regular rectangular sump that sticks out a bit in the back.
