Just received my 9410 DC and so far am loving it - easy to get up and running and does everything it's supposed to. BUT.... I was disappointed with the instruction booklet - it left me with a lot of unanswered questions, but the instruction that has left me scratching my head is that it tells you to place the skimmer in an area of low water flow. HUH?!?!? My skimmers are always in the section of my sump where the return water enters from the display tank! That's where it makes the most sense to place the skimmer, but it's hardly a low-flow area. I don't want to put the skimmer in the refugium section (it's got a deep sand bed and macro-algae and it won't fit anywhere else.
The return pump is also a DC unit and I like having it turned up pretty high so that the returns are giving my DT good flow. Is there a problem with me having the skimmer in the part of my sump where the flow is pretty turbulent?
