I am thinking going reverse flow filteration.
Need some inforation for proper set up..
I have tried a numbr of filteration methods.Berlin/sump with bioballs / Deepsand/NNR system/refugium
I have heard that the Epcot Aquarium is set up reverse flow and was impressed with the lack of micro algea.
Would like to give it a shot and am open to any suggestions
both Neg and Pos.

Mac,

Your question would get many more responses if you posted it in the Reef Discussion Forum (http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=1) as opposed to this one. This forum is more geared towards discussion between members of the Florida Marine Aquarium Society, those who are interested in joining the club, or reefers in the South Florida area who wish to sell or trade livestock or dry goods. I'm sure you'll get great feedback in the Reef Discussion Forum instead :D. Best of luck with your setup :thumbsup:.

It's called "Southdown", but apparently it's been hard to find it in the South. Everyone up north seems to find it quite easily.

If you were closer, one of our members sells it.
