I'm not familiar yet with how a skimmer works or how I have to set it up in the sump/refugium. From what I read, I'm thinking the skimmer will operate in the first chamber. I guess my plan goes as followed: 1 chamber where water enteres over some live rock then gets skimmed, 1 chamber as the refugium (probably the largest), a 3 piece bubble trap, then the return chamber. I'm still deciding between a 36" or 48" x 12" x 20" (trying to stay close to tank size) sump, but now I'm wondering how to fit the skimmer.
I picked up a Red Sea Berlin Turbo Classic brand new for $100, but it looks like it will take up alot of sump space with that protruding pump thing at the bottom. Could someone enlighten me as to how large of a chamber the turbo classic will need inside the sump, or how it works? Can someone share a picture of their sump with a Turbo Classic in it?
