Anyone have the Skimz UP39 Sump? Tips?

[SeaMonkee]

Before install I was curious if anyone can give me any tips on this sump. Had to knock a side panel out of the stand to fit, and plan to swap out the original sump either today or in the next few. Love the build quality, but a lot of bells and whistles with which I'm not accustomed. Lastly, is it worth the swap? Currently have a 30x15x15 sump, so adding 9 inches will help but unsure on the benefit. Pics of your setup would help, don't know where to start even with the instruction booklet; limited Google results. Thanks all.

I have the sump on my cad lights artisan ii 125. Only thing I wish is the section for my auto top was bigger. I lose almost 2 gallons a day from evaporation. So I currently have a 5 gallon bucket instead so I don't have to fill it everyday. Sump works great. The skimz socks seem to work out well. I actually use one regular filter sock in the first holder and use the skimz socks in the other two holder

Following. Got the same sump but it's still under construction.

cheapest I've found are the branded Skimz socks is $5.99 each. I agree on the ATO too, a bit difficult to manually fill as well.
