[quote=Hydrologist;752699] but why would you want your DT draining twice as much water as the skimmer can take up?

I use filter socks in my sump so I like the high turnover sump, I also have @ 60lbs of live rock in my sump. My sump is not lit so I don't have coraline algae on the rock and a I believe that makes the rock a more efficient bio filter than the rock in my DT which has a heavy layer of coraline algae on it.

I am waiting for a bit more info to come through, but the spread looks promising as I always suspected.

Well if you want someone to test two of them over the same footprint...
