My 180 Gallon Display has 2 overflows that go into a 105 Gallon Refugium

Refugium: water flows over a deep sand bed also filled with tons of live rock and live rubble... At the end of this flow is a Tunze 9010 Skimmer...it then dumps into a skimmer chamber and there is a EuroReef RS180... It then goes through a bubble trap where carbon and ZeoVit (Zeolite Reactor) can do their job... Then through another bubble trap then to the last chamber where the water return pump, sends it back up.

And there is is in a nutshell... I run nothing else and no filter socks.
