Im about ready to add water and rock to my setup. Orignally i had planned to purchase a skimmer in a few months but those plans may have just changed.
My stand is custom built by my wifes grandfather - it does not have a ton of head room. Anyways i thought i could add a 150sss later but after mocking up the dimensions with cardboard it does not look like it will fit through the front doors.
My question is how much shorter is the unit without the collection cup installed? This may give me enough room to add at a later date? Otherwise i may just have to buy now and drop it through the top of the stand (obviosuly before i add water which i was hoping to do this week).
Cliffs notes: want to add the skimmer later. At the dimensions goven by the manf. I cant drop it into place due to height. Need to know height without cup for additional clearance into the sump.
Forgive my typos, im posting via my phone.
