Is it possible to run a refugium in the same sump compartment as a skimmer? Or would it be possible to run it in the return pump compartment? Thanks in advance.
 
It is possible, but you're likely going to get a lot of algae buildup in your skimmer pump unless you can separate them in the compartment somehow :) If you have room in the return pump compartment i'd run it there. I did that with my old sump :)

I'll run it in my return pump compartment then, Thanks a Lot!
 
I have an area for that I believe.
Do you have an auto top off? Most skimmers will operate much better if in an area of your sump where the water level doesn’t fluctuate much.
