Whats in your sump

[Zos4me]

I was just curious as to what anyone has in their sump as far as filtration. I have a filter sock and floss with live rock . I change the socks often. I have chaeto growing. Just curious what others use

Similar, I have a filter sock in a chamber with a skimmer, then a chaeto refugium lit by a kessil h380, then a sponge to stop chaeto from getting into the last chamber, and then my heater and return pump. Pretty basic but it works also my ato and dosing lines are in there somewhere

Tunze 9410 DC skimmer, blue/white sponge and a small bag of carbon in a filter sock holder replacement, 1L bag of Pond Matrix (to seed QT/Hospital more than added bio media for display).

Fuge with sand and chaeto, into a floss tray, skimmer, gfo/carbon reactor.

My tank was looking great now it's full of algae and everything is closed up. I haven't changed anything so not sure.guess I gotta get a test kit.havnt ever used one but cant seem to find the culprit if this event

Tank is still new could be just an ugly stage but man is it ugly

My 120 has 7" filter sock, tunze 9410 dc skimmer, 150 watt ehiem heater, tunze ato level sensors and dosing line. Small powerhead as I run low flow. Tunze 1073.040 return pump.
Will add tunze 3171 calcium reactor when demand calls for it.
This is all running in a 40 breeder with NO baffles.
Have about 15lbs of live rock from my nano too.
Just waiting to put it into the sump of my 45 frag tank when its ready.
I will then run the sump with no live rock.

last week i had,
skimmer, fuge, return <- ran this way for 3 years

this week
extra large skimmer, gfo/carbon, return

couldnt fit in a fuge with the large skimmer, not sure if its the right move for the long term.

thinking of adding a cheato reactor and possibly biopellets (does anyone still use these?)
