My wife wants to get an aqueon 210. Currently have a 75 gal mixed reef running 2 radion 30s gen 2. (Have an extra lying around). Anywho, I’m trying to price everything out. What size sump? (Don’t want to make my own) currently have a trigger emerald 26. Also, what skimmer? I’d prefer a bigger skimmer for a heavy bioload. Thanks for any input.
 
Skimmer sometimes is dependent on if it fits within a sump. I would look at a 8" body skimmer. Vertex 180 is a good choice if you can buy it at a bargain. Simplicity 320 is another good choice.
