I have a RedSea 525XL and use the standard sump that came with it. I going to place an acrylic flow-over baffle in my sump between the skimmer and return pump for a refugium. This will give me an area of 19x11x11 inches; about 10 gallons; it will be lighted with a Kessil H380 Refugium light.

I’m looking for recommendations as to what I can use for circulation in the refugium, not sure if the flow over the baffle will be enough or not; I’ll be growing Chaeto. Any recommendations?
 
I saw on BRS where they used the stiff mesh instead of the baffles. That way flow would just come through from top to bottom. That might be an idea.
