All braniacs. I desperately need your help

[no1bubba]

I have had spinal surgery and getting in line to do it again. I Can no longer get to me sump, ATO container and all the things under the tank. 125 gal
I am looking to find a way that everything under the tank can be put into cabinet alongside. We are moving in two months but will only live there 4 years max so I don't want anything that has to be put in basement it must be able to move with the tank. I know you reefers are talented and I will not be able to have a tank if there is no way to accomplish this. Thank you. Bubba Shirl

I think you will be fine putting a sump on a raised platform with no problems. You could build a stand slightly lower than the display and route your overflows to it, and the return back to the tank. That would make bending over less of a problem for you.

You could skip the sump entirely and use a hang-on skimmer. I'd probably go with that approach, but I agree that the sump can be put on a small platform without any issues. The ATO container can go at any height if you use a peristaltic pump, or any of a number of similar approaches. Mine were sitting right beside the tank.
