Pyke,

I don't think the tunze will fit, unless it's external to the sump somehow.

I agree an equipment failure is an opportunity for sure, it's just we are already in the process for an upgrade to a larger system and didn't want to buy a skimmer that was only going to see a few months of use. That and the fact that the only skimmer that will fit is no good.

There is a guy on here selling food grade plastic tanks if in doubt, I have a 60G food grade tank that we use for mixing. One Idea might be to replace the existing sump with a food grade tank and use it for mixing after your done using it as a sump.

also if your looking for a new sump PM me, I know someone that is parting out a few.
