Almost done with the new entry way to the fishroom. Installed a pre-hung door, added some framing, sheet rocked, and taped and mudded it. Still need to texture, add trim, and paint - but I'm getting close. It's remarkable how quiet the rest of the basement has become. ...and less stinky.

I call on the Saltwater Gods to come forth and enlighten me with knowledge. Haha.

So with winter starting to set in, and more than a few empty aquariums laying around I ask the remote deep sand bed question.

Good or bad, and how many of you reef aholics run them?

My nitrates stay in the 10-15ppm range.

A little background,
90 AGA RR 50 Cree LED's with Apex control 50 gal sump Reef Octo 190 lbs live rock Vortech MP40w Tunze 6045 Blueline ...

So this is the idea i had for my sump I was thinking for the refugium i would use half with a 5inchsand bed and the other half just 1 inch.
the baffles after the skimmer i was planning for over under over.
Ill have the return pump and the heaters in the return zone which also will hold the bio reactor.

If anyone has any ideas or improvments i would be very thankful
