Aqueon proflex sump

[Ranlexus]

Has anybody had experience with these sumps?
I plan on getting one for my 75 g build I plan on doing.
My concern I'm having is ' is it big enough to fit a skimmer
Also what skimmer would you recommend or would I have to drill a hole for it?
Proflex model 2 is up to 75 gallons do you think this one will be enough.
If anybody who owns one can they post pictures of it as well.
Thanks

Depends on the skimmer. i have the model 4 sump and I use a C-Skim 1800 in the last chamber. It's a tight fit. What I love about his sump is it is silent. What I hate is that my floating macro always goes over the baffle into the 3rd chamber in the refugium set up.

I'm running a model 2 also on a 75 gal. The sump is set up as a Berlin with a SRO XP 1000SSS in the center chamber and the third chamber having a Eheim 1260 return pump and a MJ1200 to circulate NP Biopellets/GFO/GAC through three TLF150 reactors. Couldn't be happier with the setup. The SRO is on a 3in stand with the sump is running at 8.5in of water. Plenty of room. Well built sump...

Under my 72 bowfront i have a model 4. Switched out the adjustable wall to between the second and third compartments and my ATB 840 skimmer now sits in the second compartment with a stable water level.

Dislike the sump for the impossible to clean tubes in the first compartment.
