@Jaycobb I've got the Synergy T-26 Triton sump as well for my RSR 250. Mines fusion green. For your Current eFlux pump are you getting the module for Bluetooth control for your phone? I could post a video of it here.

I haven't even thought about the module but I'd definitely like a video of it , I'll definitely do some research on it

Pretty much done with my plumbing but I have a question is it bad to direct the emergency drain into the skimmer chamber ? It would fit my sump better or I'm just going to go with it emergency drain back into the return chamber like in the picture and modify my little lid to fit with the emergency drain not going into a bulkhead

Looks like that worked out nicely.

perhaps a couple 45 degree fixtures and you can use the bulkhead. Otherwise I see no issue they way you have it.

Sounds good i was thinking about just taking a Dremel to the little lid to make it a little wider so the emert drain will fit with the kid closed

Modified sump lid to fix plumbing after having no luck with 45s or 90s it was too tight of a fit

What will you use to light your refugium? I'm looking at a Kessil Flora H160 for mine but not sure yet.
