Very nice DIY stuff!!!
The only thing I should mention is that I've had problems with having a refugium in my sump with a light, because the light allowed coralline, pocillapora, algae, etc grow in my skimmer and anything else that light can penetrate (in my case it was skimmer and plumbing too
)
So i don't know the impact of algae in the skimmer on skimmer efficiency, but I just thought I would throw it out there.

Agreed, it's good to see someone practicing safe RO.
BTW, I love the PowerBrites. Bought them for both my tanks, give me incredible glitter lines with actinics on. I mounted them in a similar manner on the inside of my canopy so they shoot down diagonally from the front. I'm gonna put them on a separate timer so they're on by themselves for an hour or so twice a day. Gives you that reef cave look.
Great ideas, Julio, keep'em comin'.

I was able to see Julio's Set up Today,
I must say....you can only appriciate this in person...Julio has done his research...you can tell that it took time to put this much detail into his set up...from Rockwork/ Equipment/ DIY side projects/ fish selection etc. He's off to a great start. I'll share some pics later on.
Excellent Job>>keep it up Julio!!!
