I am having a hard time seeing how to run the cpr2 fuge return into the far left column. is the water flowing into the main display or into the back chamber? More description would be a huge help I want to run a fuge in this tank desperately.

Water would flow from the tank down into the chamber.

From my understanding the coris wrasse can get pretty big. How long have you had him and how big is he now. I just think he might be a bit large for a 30G inovative marine tank. What's your thoughts?

so the wrasse is extremely small. He’s doing well in there now. But my plan is to transfer him over to my waterbox 190.5 soon. I’m sure he’ll have plenty of space to swim in there

Ok so then cpr would flow into the tank. Which means I would have to find a way to rig my tank screen that came with it. Did u find a way to run this with a screen?

So the way I am wanting to run my setup from left to right. FAR LEFT, Refugium, LEFT MIDDLE, small bag of purigen, small bag of reef carbon, and chemi pure. MIDDLE, pump and heater. MIDDLE RIGHT, medium size bag of boi media mix.
Far right 3 stage cady, top coarse sponge, fine sponge. middle, bag of bio media. Bottom bag of bio media.

I dont want to use a skimmer I think I can achieve same results with a good fuge setup.

Thoughts?

It was returning into the main display toward the front of the tank. I had the intake pump in the left chamber. I wasn't using a screen though.
