I would love to have a fuge, but this is going to have to wait for awhile. But since we are on the subject, Nick, it looks like you have a 20G sump with a Tunze skimmer. Does this sump have a fuge in it? Are you using the Tunze 9010 skimmer? Are you happy with this setup? This is the same setup I would like under my next tank. Let me know your experiences!

Thanks!
haha - They are, rather. Soak it in hot water and it'll kill darn near anything.

As for the sump, I still haven't done pictures (don't ask why, I'm just lazy :P) but I've got it like this:

Tunze-->Baffles-->Fuge-->Return

I don't know how great the fuge is/will work, but i'll update as soon as I've got more details
