DIYing my first 40b with a baffle kit. Kit has option to run filter socks, but I am also wanting the possibility of a fuge, maybe. Also, if tank makes it to a mature age, I'd like a mandarin (and copepod population ofc), so my question is as follows...
Is there any specifics of skimmer placement? So far pretty standard layouts seem to be intake/socks -> skimmer/fuge -> return. Obviously bigger systems have more room to play, but my baffle kit has 3 basic sections. Could I place my skimmer in the intake section, before my socks? Or would that be inefficient for one or the other?
