Oh! I didn't get that! My question is, all the micro organisms from the refugium don't get sucked from the skimmer? Because I have seen on the internet that there is a debate about the position of the refugium on the sump!
Many hobbyists have the refugium not on the main flow from the DT but on one side of the sump that takes water from another hose and overflows on the middle department!
I haven't had any problems with the way I have it set up. I think it's more of a personal preference but I like having my refugium in line before my filter so I don't have to worry about macro algae making its way into the dt and then I'm skimming water that's already had the large particles removed
 
So after a loooong time, the system is ready!!! I know It took me a lot of time but as we say in my language better late than never... Here are some photos of the whole project, feel free to ask anything. Everything is handmade so maybe there will be mistakes, I tried my best not to make any but you know...
