what to do when sump to tall for skimmer?

[banditpowdercoat]

Well, considering I just set the tank up, not doing another stand. And a BK, what is the max height of water? My skimmer is external compatable too, But I can not get it high enough to get the outlets above the edge of the sump. Thats the problem. I would consider even external the stand, If I found a nice, but not Mtg breaking skimmer that could also be a nice conversation piece??? I have seen pics of peoples tanks with 6ft tall skimmers and such.

When we move, then I'll do a taller stand, but tank is at 34" to bottom of tank, any higher and not nice to look at while on couch.
