So I have a Red Sea Max-E 260 with upgraded sump. I really want a refugium and want to know if anyone has any easy ideas for adding one to my sump or AIO overflow. I’ve seen using the ATO gravity container but really want it out of there because it makes it hard to access everything else. Off to right of sump is my 5gallon bucket for ATK. Can I just make skimmer chamber into fuge with skimmer in? Or remove media baskets and make that a fuge with baffle? Thanks for ideas
 
I have a Reefer 525xl. I did a very simply diy mod, where I placed a piece of acrylic diagonally and drilled some bulkheads through it to direct flow. Not sure if your sump compartment is big enough for your skimmer once it’s divided in half.
