    What kind of skimmer would you recommend for my 40 gallon fish tank I am going to set up. I have a 29 gallon sump to put it in. Something of higher quality would be nice.

    Overflow box question

    I have decided to just do an under tank sump and was wondering if in order to do one, do I need an overflow box? Also I have a 40 gallon tank and was gonna do a 29 gallon sump. Is that too big or should I use something smaller.

    What is needed for this tank?

    I just got this tank for free from a friend and it seems like it's missing a ton of parts and has some weird mesh thing on the bottom with a PVC pipe in the middle with holes drilled into them. I don't know what it's for and I am lost with the parts needed to make this tank work. Please help.
