Mini refugium has been set up. Bio blocks submersible led and fritz turbo 900 bacteria. Just have to wait on the pods, chaeto, and phytoplankton from algae barn.

I will get around to starting a build thread too. I am running a 9004DC, minimax reactor w/gfo, apex, 2x tunze 6055s, 2x kessil 360w ~7" off the water, tunze 3155 ato, 2 part dosing . I have one section in the back I could use as a refugium but I am going to see how things run as is.
If I do add a refugium it will be after the filter sock to help keep detritus from building that could bi-pass the skimmer.
Ahhhhhhhhh. Super secret build. Lol.
Any suggestions on whether I should put the refugium on the side with the filter sock, or the side with the skimmer?
I actually didn't. I had three powerheads I placed in the tank and had (can you believe this) TOO MUCH FLOW. I cut it back to one 550 powerhead that blows behind the rockscape and the stock pump provide plenty of flow.I forgot to ask, did you find the need to upgrade the pumps for your 50?
About 4". The tunze 9004 fits. But to do this, you're giving up a filter sock.I am about to get mine in soon, can you tell me how much room you have between the compartment wall and the back of the aquarium? Just curious if I can get a skimmer in there. The manual only has the width but not the depth of the chambers.
100% IN LOVE, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!
