I have a 40 breeder and want to build a sump, that will house my protien skimmer, wet filter, and heater. Don t really have any ideas of how big to make it, or how. My biggest concern is getting the water in and out of the sump with out having an overflow somewhere.

Your sump can be any size but a more favorable size is 29 and up.

well your def gonna have to decide if you want to drill or have a HOB overflow, without those you wont be able to get aby water to and from the sump. Sump depends on the size of your under cabinet. What are your dimensions under your tank and go from there.
