The only thing I regret is using the stand I got with the tank. Its short which is nice because I can sit in my office chair in front of it and its at the perfect level and I cawork in it without a step (helps being 6'4" tall too :P), but the floor underneath the stand sits about 4 inches off the floor and I don't have much headroom in the sump. From the top of the sump to the bottom of the opening is only 7" and I have 17" of height for the skimmer. Very difficult to find a skimmer that short

I've always had my sump stuffed in the stand under the tank. For my last tank I went with an external overflow and had the sump behind the tank with lots of room all around it. I couldn't be happier with that set up as I had unlimited access and wasn't restricted on the size of the sump so no comprimises had to be made for skimmers, pumps, etc.

not an issue with the mesh socks but with the others it's really tough to flip them inside out to clean. easier with 8" tho still tough sometimes.
