UNS or Nyos

[Bolts1987]

Roughly 100gallon, Open to other options!

I know both expensive, and I know they both have some pros and cons, but it’s my first hundred gallon tank, and I’d like some flexibility in the sump, with some aesthetically pleasing attributes so the wife likes it as well!

Nyos sumps size issues, Uns internal overflow and customizations needed on piping, etc.

Any advice or thoughts to help me decide?

Thanks All!

Commenting so I can follow the thread. For me I would want to make sure the sump could fit the equipment I want (eg, I like the RedSea filter rollers).

Agreed, however, nature’s dimensions does make a nice filter sock roller replacement.

I have no direct experience with either from a saltwater perspective, but everything I have gotten from UNS from a freshwater perspective has been as nice as it gets (arguably overpriced, but still tops when it comes to quality).

Better than nothing for sure but the RedSea units are much larger which means they can process more water and require less frequent roll changes. This is only one piece of potential equipment and plenty of folks run great tanks without a roller. I love the look of both the Nyos and UNS tanks!
