Any experinence with All Glass Megaflow Sumps?

Just looking for any pros or cons regarding the All Glass Megaflow Sumps... I have a 92 gallon corner tank that the model 3 sump would fit perfectly under. I just can't seem to find any info on the sizes of the individual chambers and I'm thinking I'd want to remove the bio ball "container" and see if I could squeeze my skimmer into that spot...
I'll take any and all comments on the system...

Here are some links:

Thanks!

seem very costly for what they are.....why not just get a 20long and put the baffles in yourself, save a few hundred that way.

I have had my 92 gallon corner tank for nearly 7 years and have a 20 gallon regular tank for my sump in my stand.

Do a search on the wetwebmedia.com site for "sumps" and check out the article on designing a sump with removable baffles. You can get the baffles cut-to-size at Lowes

I grew up in Tampa!

Good luck.

Do what this guy suggests. I built my sump out of a 20L for about $60.
