Skim in main tank or sump ?
Good evening fellow reefers,
I'm setting up a sump/refugium. I can place the skimmer in the sump or leave it on the tank. (Aqua C Remora Pro) Where is the skimmer more effective: Sump, Main Display or it doesn't matter ? TIA !!! Chris

IMO, Effectiveness is not going to change much depending on placement in
tank vs. sump. I'd place it in sump just for estetics of the main display. "TheRock" wrote in message news  HYsf.3453$Rb.467@trndny02...Good evening fellow reefers, I'm setting up a sump/refugium.

Chris If you have good surface skimming overflow feeding your sump the sump is a much better place for the skimmer, since the surfactants are more concentrated in the sump because of the overflow.
