The sump on a Cade 600 and 900 has a pretty tiny area to jam in a skimmer and filter mat. It's 14.8" x 12.36", and I've been making diagrams to scale to see what I can fit in there. According to my diagrams, a Red Sea ReefMat 250 and RSK-300 *might* just barely fit in this thing. I have a 60 gallon Cade 600 on the way that's going to be SPS dominant, so this skimmer should be ok but the ReefMat is borderline. Ideally I'd like to fit the 500 in there. I may have more space than I think, given the ReefMat's hang on the edge, but I really can't tell.
I've been spelunking through folks build threads and have found ReefMat 500's paired with Mantis Tornado 500 and Deltec 600i's, but never with a Red Sea skimmer. Anyone have experience here they can share on what will fit?
