What filtration is your favorite?
There are a million different combinations for filtering a tank. What does everyone run? Refugium? If so what macro? ZeoVit? Triton? A combination?

Nothing but the work being done by bacteria in a tank for me..
Carbon dosing if/when needed to keep that bacteria strong/numerous.. Let the corals and other filter feeders be my only "filtering".. I've done Chaeto and Turf scrubbers in the past and while each worked to some extent they were typically more work than I want to put into a system..

While I have a skimmer running in the tank I have it set to where I fill the cup once every 4-6 weeks or so...
