As it states what's your tank size and overall volume? i am also curious if you feel a larger volume too tank size makes a difference.
I will start I have a 190 gallon tank and 280 gallon volume including 55 sump and 55 frag tank all plumed together.
 
My tank is 180 with a 30 gal sump. Wish I had a bigger tank and sump cause it deffinetly make a huge difference with larger water volume in my opinion
 
More water volume definitely makes a big difference. Most people's sumps are heavily undersized, including my own. I have a 200 DD with a 55g sump/refuge and a 20g frag tank. I estimate about 260g total. I'm also thinking about plumbing in the new tank I just won right into the system as well. I think it's about a 40g cube. :)
 
82g display less 20 gal for rock displacement and a 40 gal sump with about 30 gallons + what's in reactors around 100 gallons of water give or take
 
My tank is a 300 gallon tank, with a 130 gallon sump. It is currently dry as I am refurbishing it, but it will be a beautiful reef tank one day!
 
I did make a large note on my tank in the large tank section of the forum, and I will continue to keep it up to date as the build goes on. I have been out of the fish game for several years now and I am sure I will be seeking the advise of my fellow reef keepers to help me make wise purchase decisions! Thanks for the reply
 
120 gal DT, 20 gal sump, 20 gal external fuge. Total water volume is roughly 150 gallons.
A huge step up from the 24 and the 5 lol.
 
72 gallon bow minus rock/sand displacement + ~12-15gallon sump equals probably roughly the original 72gallons + ~13gallon frag tank = roughly 80-85 gallons total.
 
Currently have a 90g with 30g sump, plus a 13g nano with two ten gallon sumps (one sock and skimmer, second reactor and extra volume.) Thinking about adding a 240-260g cutom in wall tank later this year, would porbably go with at least 100g sump.
