Looking to transfer over a clarisea sk5000 to a new setup. Custom 200 gal tank is in que and I need to find a sump that will allow a the clarisea to fit right in. I was looking at the trigger sumps but don't think they'll work with the filter socks and the baffle. At the moment, im not trying to go custom, I d rather buy it "off the shelf". Suggestions and opinions are appreciated. If you have pictures that would be great as well. Let me know what size would be a perfect fit for a 200 gallon.
 
I would just get a sump that has it built in. I know Geo has some with Rollers built in. Perhaps call them and see if they can build one without the sock compartment that will accommodate your roller. Don’t think they would charge more for it.

Royal exclusive also sells a prebuilt roller set up.
 
off the shelf? maybe geo, melev, or lifereef?

Yup I had Geo in mind but Ill look into Melev and Lifereef

Yeah I'v seen pre-installed filter rollers, but being that the clarisea rollers are readily available or can be shipped next day is a plus for me. Plus, Im not sure if the pre-built filters are as good as the clarisea version where it encapsalates the smell.

For a 200gal system, would a 36-42" sump suffice? Only reason is Id like to have some space on either side for additional equipment like a calcium reactor or a controller board.
