I'm currently designing a sump for my 55 gal tank and need some input on some good in-sump skimmers and return pump for it. I'm thinking a 20 gal sump or higher as I might upgrade the show tank to ~100 gal in the future and don't want to have to build a new sump. The return line will be around 4'. I'll need the most effective while being fairly quiet for the skimmer. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Reefing newb
I just bought a Reef Octopus 150 and its AWESOME! It comes with it's own pump for the skimmer. If you're referring to a return pump, I love my mag drive 9. It's relatively quiet(I use a small piece of styrofoam underneath it to help with the noise.)
Just my opinion. I'm a relative newb with this stuff.

something smells fishy
You almost can't go wrong with any reef octopus skimmer
