The reason I am asking is because 10 years ago I had a 29g euro show tank set up, no sump a fluval 404 I think with LR in it. And protien skimmer rated for 150g. 35p of LR.. The tank had numerous shrooms,zoo's, a devils hand,open brain,frog spawn and a torch. As for crittersI a reef lobster, sand sifting star and a healthy clean up crew in it.. That tank was perfect for 4years till I moved and sold it to a friend.. Now withe 90g is it safe to set up with out a sump or should I try to make somthing for a.sump... I am confused they say small tanks are hard to run but I had no problems with my old tank so would'nt my 90g be easier to keep up with with out a sump???

First of all, welcome to Canreef.
You could definetely do a chest or trunk to house your sump. The only thing I can think of would be to make sure it's well vented. You'll also need enough height to allow for a skimmer. Also keep in mind there will be a lot of pipes for your plumbing that will be coming into and going out of your chest/trunk. I think if you could hide all that somehow it would be quite a neat designer type idea. I like it. good luck

I was thinking an old pirate style chest with the rounded top for extra space for the protien skimmer and a acrilic home made insert.. On the back of the chest have all my electrics and wires mounted and boxed. As for pipes I like to use flexable tubing ...
