Just got a trigger cube sump, the 250 reefmat will fit in it, or I can trim 1.5” of the brace to the 500 (which will have less than a 1” to share on both sides around it).

My tank is 65g and thinking I’ll do the 1200gph modular marine. It has 3 drain tubes but not sure that means water drains in one or two, and third is emergency? The reefmat supposedly is 900gph and needs a drain to it.

What do you think is best?

Also if I add chaeto in the same compartment, should it be behind the roller mat, or infront for whichever needs access/cleaning more? Behind it might give me more room but around plumbing, infront I can block the roller mat and plumbing but less room to grow.
