I will be upgrading from a 55 gal to a 125 here in the next couple months and have some questions. First, the tank is not rr so I will be using a aqua c pro hob skimmer and also a above tank 20 gal refugium. With this set up will I need a sump for anything? If so what? I will be using pre skimmers on both the skimmer and refugium to pull surface water. My current 55 with 6 fish and mostly softys is set up like this with cpr bak pak and hob refugium, and it basically runs itself with monthly water changes. and can rival some sps tanks. Also I am somewhat concerned about the 125 as I live in a 2 story, daylight basement and it will go where my 55 is upstairs. Should I be worrired about the weight difference? The home is a solid owner built in 1957. Any input is appreciated and I will post more later as I progress.
