Ok, I'd be grateful for any input to help a skimmer virgin.... <insert joke here>
If you were building a system from scratch, and space in or next to the sump was not an issue, do you go in-sump or external bubble king and why? I don't really know enough to know what is best, but can do either.
I've heard of peoples' skimmers "going crazy" and overflowing lots of water and "thank goodness it was in my sump so it didn't go dry while I was out of town" or something. Is this common?
Planning a 130g tank with oversized sump because who knows, may want to feed other tanks into it...
