So I got my sump from Scott@Alligator earlier this week and it seems like a pretty easy install, but the one thing that has me wondering whether I should take the tank off and do it "right" is the fact that I'm sure theres debris of some sort in the tank, and now by eliminating my drawtube I'm also eliminating the screen that's attached to the bottom of it. Is the screen in the Raptor fine enough to not worry about it? I wasn't thinking so but maybe I'm over thinking this... opinions?

 

You talking about a screen in a separator or something? Should be.. have a good enough filtration system?

 

I have the Helman sump. Just put an inline filter in from the sump to the pump.

 

Is that what you did? Seems like the easiest way to do it, I'm just not crazy about the idea.

 

It is easier than dropping the tank and cleaning out an in-tank screen.
