See how much ur fren charge u..good to compare price..

But make sure that the metal stand is nicely measured and solid soldering..lastly is the balance must be good..or else the glass tank will break due to inbalance pressure..

Personally, i prefer sump tank. Thats why i shifted from cannister to sump. Reason is easier to clean & change medias. Also, the whole sump tank is visible, so u can always monitor the condition.

But its always depend on personal preferences.

If want to using sump tank. Main tank need to have 2 holes right?

Yes, one in & one out. But u hv to bear in mind that its gonna cost u some noise. If ur tank in bedroom, then its not advisable.

To bad... Coz i found 2nd tank... But with one hole only... Haiz... I will not put in my bedroom..

sump will also add the water volume significantly compared to canister... more volume means parameters more stable...

Canister
- quiet
- space saving
- good for pressured flow medias..e.g. biohome, subtract pro etc
- I find it irritAting to be maintain.. not user friendly during maintenance..
- will not wet your cabinet..coz u can carry the entire canister to toilet..

Sump
- simple..can see every part of it..
- could attract mosquitoes
- noisy
- user friendly during maintenance
- need some technical skills to make sure the medias are fully utilize..
- will wet your cabinet during maintenance

Nice info... Thanks a lot..
