Okay,after my tank leaked and had to replace it,I had enough room to put my skimmer in my sump(i thought).when setting it up,I realized that I would have no more room for the refugium,oh well,I can fix that later.Well I noticed now I dont have enough room to pull the filter sock out

.,So this weekend ill be trying to fix that,getting a goby out of the sump and installing a better refugium.

Any Idea how I should do this,can I move the skimmer to the refugium,how should I connect the refugium to my sump?thanx for your replies.

It's very hard to give you recomendations without knowing more about your setup.

The refugium will work plumbed to the sump, but is better if it drains in the display tank (depending on your objectives).

Tanks size? Sump size? Type of setup etc...?
