Good evening,
Been out of the reef for awhile and decided fo start again. I just purchased an IM 75 EXT and curious which sump you would purchase, are you happy with it and what you would change if you could. Im looking at trigger and fiji cube sumps.

Thank you

I went with the fiji cube 36 advanced reef sump for my EXT 100.

it was an open box on Bulkreef so it was marked down. But it’s build solid, looks very nice and clean.

The skimmer area is huge. If you want a refugium the chamber for that is kind of small. And the return chamber fits my Vectra L1 with plenty of room.

I wanted to go with the 100ext as well, but my wall was too small. I see people using fiji cube 20. Im trying to decide if I should go smaller than the 36 allowed inches so i can put an ato reservoir.

Hi. Did you decide on a sump? I just ordered the 75 ext. I'm also trying to decide between trigger and fiji. However I'm also trying to decide whether to get the trigger with the built-in roller or get a Fiji and add a clarisea.

The Fiji sumps are nice. Solid build come with so extra parts if you want floss or socks. I also appreciate the chamber covers that come with it. I founds this one open box on BRS which was nice
