At the moment my sump was design for Chaeto, Bioball and then a mud refugium. Chaeto didnt work for me. I know it works for other.
As an experiment I made a little scrubber to sit on top of the old sump.

Im thinking about building a new sump with a bigger scrubber to sit on top. Using the drain from the display to run it. (Instead of having three pumps)
I know everyone likes the newer types of scrubbers but the one ive build has worked so we for me, id like to make one thats bigger and better.
I know you dont like skimmers either. But id rather have one and not use it. (Just in case something goes wrong)

The picture isnt really to scale. but you'll get the idea
The scrubber screen would be 770mm x250mm and lit by 24 3watt 3000k Cree leds
Would this be enough for 2 - 3 cubes per day without a skimmer and GFO?
Thanks
