Redoing plumbing on 80g lagoon

[biggie4jets]

Hello everyone,

Looking for some suggestions on how I can fit a refugium within my sump. I may also want to redo my plumbing since I just bought a cor-15 pump.
I currently have a Clarisea sk3000 and a reef octopus int110 protein skimmer inside the sump.
TIA!

I don’t necessarily see a refugium in your future. I can’t tell what’s in the upper left corner, but that would kind of be the only place to locate it. Is the COR15 replacing your return pump or augmenting it? (you can power the COR15 through 1LINK).

Need to get the skimmer in the same section as the roller mat. Not sure if it will fit, even if you cut out the section for the drains, but measure then decide.

Would be replacing my return pump and using 1link ya. I have 2 free 1link ports left.

That’s my thinking too. I would have to cut and remove the filter sock and drain holders

Yea I agree, a dermal, jigsaw, grinder or even a mini hack saw with a fine tooth blade with get the job done. But your going to want to double check those dimensions, top and bottom.
