Hi Wayne,

Its controversial, different reefers have it different way, so no only and best method :)

If you can't decide between DSB and refugium. why don't you try DSB with refugum on top ? I don't see any harm in doing that ... ... just that the depth of water for algae to grow is lesser, you need to prone the algae more often.

IMHO number of compartment is not as important as the size of it, if you have the basic three in proportion is good enough as compartments an be shared but size cannot change.

Refugium is one of the better methods has it helps to export nutrients. The best sump you can have is one that is flexible to cater to most methods. Look into the net for sump partition designs of various filtration methods and come up with your own concortion.

Other than that, look into having spray bar and cover that minimise salt spray, some baffle that reduce bubbles from getting into main tank.

have additional space for future upgrades of skimmer

Wah bro, I think you sump hold as much water as your main tank boy!

Any refugium shots except for the i-ref??? If I have so big a sump, I will have a big fuge with Mangrove too, since got the sun! ;)

i ditched the i-ref already.... as it is too small for my tank....
