I am about to start my build on a red sea reefer 750. Using the stock plumbing, what is the best way to set up the sump? I will be running a Vectra M1 pump and a IcecapK1-200 skimmer. 2 Finnex 300W
heaters and a Kessil H160 Tuna flora for the refugium. Any suggestions, photos or advice would be greatly appreciated. Some say to run the refugium before the skimmer and others say after. I know there are no set rules but wanted to start on the right foot. Heater locations etc.
 
I don’t have a Red Sea Reefer, so I cannot be of help with their product.

I will say that I like the idea of the refugium before the skimmer, especially for something like the Triton method. It makes a lot of sense to let the macro algae have first dibs on the nutrients and skimmer get the leftovers.
