I have a Remora that I am very happy with. I would definitely recommend.

Hang on aquarium.....no sump in this tank

I've heard the hang-on remoras are pretty good. 

You should just add a sump or a wet dry...and throw the tunze nano in there...I can't say enough good things about it & their customer service.

i have thought about that, but the only thing i can come up with is a 10 gallon aquarium for a refugium sump.......and not to sure on how to get that to work with out a possibility of it overflowing incase pump failure or power outtages.

[MechanicalEngineer]

I had a 10g on my 40g with no problems...through power failures and all.  You just have to make sure your baffles aren't too high...depends on where your overflow is.  My pump is a Mag 5 if I remember correctly.

Do you have have the specs on your baffle placements and how high to make the baffles?   That is what has me at a loss at this time. I will take all the help i can get.

Thanks everyone, Duane
