Debating on a new set up and like the Nuvo 20 gallons. Trying to decide between the Nuvo 20 peninsula or the regular more lagoon style 20g. While the peninsula is really slick, you have much less sump room for equipment, while the other style is not as appealing to me but provides almost double the sump space and would allow for a lot more options.

Thoughts?

Did you pull the trigger on one of these? I'd go for the regular tank. You can never have enough room in the sump. Think maintenance alone it would be worth it to have more elbow room.

I did not pull the trigger yet but I agree with you that it makes more sense to have that extra sump space and room to do more things in the regular version

Did you already deicide which one you would take? I am currently using 20G peninsula. Although the sump space is quite narrow, it can fit any skimmer and Sicce 0.5 return motor in it. If you like to have a bunch of fish, just go for the regular one, but it would be good choice to go for the peninsula one with small number of live stock.
