what i figures i was gonna do was build the bar like an "L" and have on the fron the main tank and then in the "L" part have like a 55 refuguim/sump thing and then thats where the little fridge or keg will go. i just have to build it and figure out all the plumbing problems (yikes) with everything being pretty much on the same level, that sorta means no gravity feeds :mad: so hmmmmmmmmm any ideas?

My refugium sits pretty much at the same level as my sump.I use a syphon return from the ref to the sump.You could use a powerhead to supply the refugium with two syphon tubes as the return.This has never failed me...As a precaution you could run the powerhead off of a float/overflow valve that sits in the refugium.If the syphon ever fails,the float would turn off the pump,and cut off the supply...
