Nice! Share some pics soon

Ya I’ll toss some up I’m currently in the super ugly phase.
here is my sump image.jpg
pardon the blue, this light only has blue or red, thing I want you to notice is the strainer…
in the other hole in the main compartment is a small powerhead blowing water in from the other side image.jpg
again, pardon the terrible photo quality, I just wanted you to know than refugium compartment gets stagnant almost without some circulation from the other side, just circulating on one side is inadequate apparently as I had stuff dying until I modified it a lil

Ya I had the same issue I had to put two powerheads in because I have the divider in.

Yes, I have two wavemakers in my extension sump running as of now. One compartment I filled up with liverock and the other at the back is my refugium with the wavemaker to get the chaeto to tumble. Thanks for the heads up @Doctorgori and @KHH
