I'm going to be getting a 125 probably in the next month or so. Under it the space I'll have will be about 49" long, 16" wide and maybe 30 inches high. I'll have to leave enough room so I can get my skimmer in and out of it. I have a 30 gal tank as a sump under my 75 now, using about 20 to 25 gal in it. I have access to other tanks to make a sump out of and I have some glass to make one out of as well.
Is there a rule of thumb for sump size for different tanks? Or maybe something like a sump large enough to hold X pounds of liverock for every gal of tank? How do I choose a sump for a 125? Suggestions on size welcome as well, but please include why I should go that size.
Thanks,
Rob
