Non sump filtering, what you got?

epidemic · 08-10-2005, 11:24 AM

I was just curious of what people who don't have sumps/fuge use to filter their tank.
I personally use an emperor 400 and 280 with a prizm red sea skimmer rated to 90 gal (POS!!). This set up works OK, but I do a lot of water changes.
Since my tank is on 4x4's and cinder blocks

, I have no room under the tank.

Most of us are using the berlin method which basically means that we use LR and a quality skimmer. I have a bak pak 2 on my sumpless setup and couldnt be happier with it. I have also had a Remora Pro which I thought was quite bulky. There are a few out there that use the Aquaclear HOB filters as a fuge which may be a nice addition to your setup if you want to improve it.
