I was just curious what percentage of us SW keepers have a sump in their systems. I read an article recently describing a nano reef that had a sump hooked to it that actually held a larger volume of water than the display tank  . I employ a sump in my system for the extra water volume and as a place to hide/discharge equipment I don't want to be seen. My sump is a 100 gallon Rubbermaid horse watering trough I bought at the local farmers supply house for $75.00.
So many species, so little money!

Well, I have a sump, but its for a FW system, so I guess it doesn't really count. But when I DO get a SW tank set up, I will probably set it up with a sump/refugium system.
