How’s this nano sump design?

[Ephervescent]

First saltwater build (I only have freshwater tanks right now). Designed this super simple sump, mostly to hide equipment. Sump dimensions are 18” x 10” x 12” tall, and will be filled with 9” of water. Skimmer will be the Tunze Comline 9004 DC, which I believe needs to be submerged in about 9” of water, hence the baffle heights.

Display tank is an ADA 60P, about 17 gallons, with an Eshopps Prodigy M overflow. Planning to do a Herbie overflow.

Just wanted to know if this is a decent enough design before I get it custom made. What do you guys think?

That’s a perfect design! Simple and works best in my experience.. just make sure your pumps and skimmer fit in the compartments you want.

No need for baffles in that system.
I ran my 120 and several others with no baffles. They really are only needed if you run a fuge to keep it seperate.
My 120 had a skimmer, carx, and was the easiest sump to work in due to being baffle free.

The sump on my 30 mixed reef is a 7 gallon aquarium, with no compartments either. Everything I need stuffed into it.

Awesome, thank you so much. I’ve gone ahead and commissioned the build!
