I am looking at the refugiums from RE and find that I can place up to a 20x60x50cm refugium to the right in my cabinet. However this may be at the wrong side of the Dreambox.
Anyone having such refugium placed to the right with downdraft to filter socks on left side, and if so how is the refugium connected with flow in and out?
The right side would be the best side since the return section is on the right. You could plumb it to drain into the spare pipe with the black cover on it on the back right edge of the dreambox. You wouldn’t want it to drain into the socks though since any pods would get caught in the socks instead of making their way into the display as a food source for your fish. You would feed the refugium from a manifold from your return pump or add a dedicated pump to feed it with such as the RD5 25w pump which could sit inside the sump and use the spare pipe with the black cap on the back edge to pump out of. You would need to add a bulkhead for the refugium to drain back into the return section though.
