Hi Guys,

I'm currently building out a fish room and, in order to use the space I have most efficiently, need to have an external sump, a protein skimmer and reactors all along one section of a wall. I'm thinking I'll build a shelving unit to support all the equipment with an external protein skimmer and media reactors on upper shelves and have my sump on the lowest shelf. Have any of you done something like this? If so, I'd love to see pictures and/or hear any ideas you've come up with for this.

Cetainly safer to have internal skimmer, no worries of overflows. The rest sounds like a good plan
Let’s see some pics
