Re: Post your RSM 250 Mods Here!

The clams look great, and very nice refugium! Are you supplying the refugium with a pump or siphon? Do you plan on using the skimmer in the CPR?

Pump! Water goes from the CPR Overflow to the CPR CY194 Wet/Dry, then pumped to the chiller, out the chiller to the CPR Aquafuge Pro, out the Fuge to the UV Sterlizer and back to the tank. Almost all the plumming was done behind the RSM250. I'm using both skimmers in the CY194 and the Aquafuge Pro.

Please do this to me if I say something stupid! And if my wife asks, it was only $20!

My Porcupine Puffer squirted me in the face last night! I couldn't help but laugh... I guess he just wanted some attention!
