Where's Waldo?
Mine is in there somewhere! I'm thinking right front.
Received my UPS shipping confirmation today, should be in my hands next Wednesday 12-Sept.

Start with the water layer below the lifereef sticker like about an inch.

My skimmer is on it's way! UPS says Tuesday. I'm regretting I didn't just start out with a full Lifereef system. I'm already planning to change out my sump system for one in the next several months.

Sweet! Had I known, on my recent 120 upgrade, I would have gone the full LR route. I purchased a Synergy Reef sump with one of their Shadow Ghost Overflows. They make very nice products. I'm running my tank bare bottom, Berlin style, no refugium, just a skimmer, UV, Ozone, and a CaRx.

I have a Trigger Triton sump which is nice enough. I'm just not liking how it works as I've started adding reactors. I know it can be laid out better and I want it to look better organized.

I replaced my Trigger sump with the Synergy sump. The Trigger sump was just to hard to work in. The filter socks were in the back left corner, which made changing them a major PITA.

Mine is the Triton version of the Trigger sump. There is basically no way to fit a filter sock in. I don't want to use one all the time but would like to be able to occasionally. The quality is nice but I'm finding it's not working out great for my needs.

Returning home from work last night, as I drove into my driveway, much to my delight, this was sitting on my front step! I felt like a 6 year old on Christmas morning! Hope the neighbors weren't watching!

I hope to get this fired up tonight! Once running, I'll post some more pics.

All the necessary fittings, hoses, and clamps you would need to install.
(Note: I had the COR 20)

Quality craftsmanship for sure! Jeff did a great job!

To connect the COR 20, I didn't want a bunch of adapters, so I whipped this
up this morning.
