help with refugium sump for 75 gallon tanp

[sbrodacz]

I have been having zero luck getting a tank refugium sump in my tank stand. I just bought a eshopps 3rd generation r100 meant for a 75-125 gallon tank but it will not fit. I can get it in standing straight up but then do not have enough room to tilt it down. I tried fitting a 20 gallon long that I was going to turn into a sump but that would not fit either. I have now purchased two different sumps. It is starting to look like I may have to empty the tank and move it enough to get the sump in. Has anyone else had any of these issues? if so, what did you do? Any advice? I was thinking of contacting a tank maintenance place to empty the tank.
