Torn between these 2 sumps.
They seem to have roughly the same features. I do like that the trigger has the option to use a foam block instead of filter socks. Who has used both and what are your thoughts? I have heard that bashsea is the best as far as quality but is it worth the almost $300 more then the trigger?

I have used both and find them almost identical in build quality. I really didn't notice much of a difference. I will say that I had much better support dealing with Trigger Systems rather than dealing with Bashsea (I currently have a Bashsea sump and reactors).

I haven't used either but just looking at the layout I think I like the layout of the Trigger a little better. Although 4" shorter it seems to make better use of the space.
