No its from Saline-Solutions 18" hook on refuge. It didnt come with a power head so not sure what it needs and how im supposed to hook it up.

Yup, gotta get water into it somehow. That would be the job of the power head. Take a look at the aquafuge literature I sent you and you will see how their's is set up. Very similar looking to that one. I looked at Saline Solutions web site and they don't even list a hang on the tank refugium.

Yeah I know I read it and looked at the site also but they dont have anything on it.
is the power head supposed to be inside the squarium and attach to the smaller pvc intake?

Looks that way to me. Then the water flows out the larger PVC pipe on the other side. And in betwixt that is the place for the macro algae, rock sand or whatever.
(Ha used in betwixt in a sentence!!!!)

So do I only need one powerhead for the intake? None for the outtake? Or will the water just flow out by itself? So confused on this haha should have never gotten a refuge

I would think that the manufacturer would be able to help you. Google CPR aquafuge and take a look at some of the pictures they have of their setups. You are going to need a light to go over it to grow the macro alga and the pump. I think you will be good to go then. I would suggest looking up the Azoo Galaxy Light.
