Getting ready to install an ETSS Reef Devil Deluxe in my 100 gallon Rubbermaid sump.
As the water depth is 18 inches and the skimmer is designed to work @ a maximum depth of 7 inches, I will elevate the skimmer 11 inches to keep it within specs.
Question is regarding the pump placement.
I could put it at the same level of the skimmer (shortest head/more output) or on the bottom of the sump.
Looking for opinions on placement for the best skimming. I don't know if it would pull more from the floor of the sump or if it matters at all?
Obviously mounting is up with the skimmer would increase turnover.
Thanks!
