I'm hoping your collective wisdom can point me in the right direction here. I have a 29 gallon biocube, already significantly modded with a skimmer in the back and an external chiller. I'm really hoping to add a sump style refugium without drilling. I suppose it would have to go in the loop with the chiller and everything I've read suggests that only one powerhead should be used in the loop as flow rates are impossible to match.

My first thought was pump ->chiller->fuge->return pump. But again, two pumps in the system could pose a problem. My second thought would be pump->chiller->fuge where the refugium would be above the tank and the return would be gravity fed. But this configuration will certainly be more complicated.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Im thinkin of doin the gravity fed sump, It should work perfect, i want to make a 2.5g one more of like a little mini sump for some filter floss and media, but it is very possible to make one into a fuge too. Keep me updated.
