Joe, great thread to learn from. Scary to hear the lights could short like that.

Sorry to interrupt, but could you help me understand your system flow. I understand the main display tank overflows to the refugium, then to the raceway frag tank, then to the sump/skimmer before return to display.

I read that Anthony Calfo checked out your system. Doesn’t he suggest the refugium should be fed water after the skimmer, for return to display? I guess if the purpose of the fuge is for nutrient export, it doesn’t matter. But if you’re also producing copepods, or other critters for feeding the display, wouldn’t the skimmer remove a lot of that?

I’m in the last stages of planning my system, and yours is a huge inspiration. Just trying to figure out the details.
