I simply took my diy 6' sump and where the water enters the sump and upflows over a wall into my floss etc and before, skimmer, bio pellet reactor, CA reactor and 2 refugiums I installed a sanded mesh sheet that hangs down and lays across the floss sheet, with a chaetomax light on opposite display lights. Works amazingly well.
I also did the same DIY on my sump in a 47 corner bow front reef as well, and again 100 percent effective
