So I was lucky enough to pick up a nice 60g cube that had been in use at my LFS for 3 months. Its the marine land version with center overflow. I currently have a 53g cube that I will be transferring over to this setup. I did not have a sump on my previous setup but do have a diy 10g sump ready to go. My problem is that on my old tank I have been running a BH-2000 Reef Octopus and currently do not have the finances to replace this skimmer with an in sump version. Also as the cube has a center overflow I will not be able to place it on the back of the tank. I do however have the room and the correct water level to hang it on the sump as the way I built the stand the 2x4's are laid on their side which allows for the skimmer to hang properly on a 10g. Will I be ok with the skimmer setup this way or should I try and run it in sump. I believe but am not 100% certain that the pump for these skimmers is submersible.
