Skimmer Question
 
I want to have as little as posible in the tank as far as visible components, and I was wondering if I could drill my Remora AquaC skimmer so that it feeds the sump/refug and then have it also be the return point? (sorry if it sounds confusing and/or ridiculous, it's just an idea)

thanks,

im not quite sure what you mean.....
but....If you think what I think you mean.....in a power outage the capacity would be there for the remora to act like a siphon and drain the tank to the point of the feed pump....so I would say to not try that.
