badwhiskey Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I want a side display refugium that will be slightly lower than my display tank..can this be a simple overflow then a return pump at bottom of the tank? Easiest way to do this please Link to comment
Shewillbemine Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 What about the hang on refugiums like this one? http://www.marinedepot.com/CPR_AquaFuge_2_Hang_on_Refugium_Hang_On_Refugiums_Sumps-CPR-CR1721-FIRFEB-vi.html Link to comment
gmanreefer Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I am thinking about using a MAME overflow from my 10g to a mr aqua 7.5 gallon cube as a diplay refugiam with a skimmer. Other idea is to use a canister filter from the display to the refugiam and return pump from the refugiam back to the display. If the canister filter dies though it would cause me to overfill the display so maybe not best option Link to comment

ajmckay Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Sounds like a good idea as you have it. Overflow main tank to remote refugium (treat it like a sump) then pump back. Link to comment
