I am trying to setup a Refugium, but have some basic challenges. First my tank is supposed to be completely contained and as such has an iternal sump with Protein skimmer. In order to get the water flowing, I am going to use a canister filter, Rena XP2, to pull water out of the overflow box and into the canister then out to the other pieces in the system. I live in Texas so I also have a chiller and thus my question continues. Does the chiller need to go before or after the fuge? I have attached a couple of design thoughts and would love some feedback on the viability of the design. I am going to use float switches and auto top off to control water levels. The canister filter will have only GAC and possibly some Phosphorus sponge, no pads or biological media. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
