Eshopps RS-100 on 75g Reef????

[BayouBeard]

I'm setting up a 75 gallon FOWLR tank with expectation of going to a reef setup in the future...so I want to do things right the first time and not regret it later on.

With that being said...would the Eshopps RS-100 sump (20 gallon) fit the bill?

I want to get my feet under me with a FOWLR tank at first and move my way up to a reef setup when I get some experience. Would the RS-100 not just work...but work well?

Unfortunately when I built my stand (originally for freshwater) I didn't leave any room for a sump...so this is the largest model I can fit.

Any suggestions at all?

I have the RS100 on a 40B and it is great. It is a great sump overall and would be fine for your 75. Throw out the black sponge however.
