Question

yet another sump question...

wait, in a sump/refugium, does the bubble trap come before the refugium section(right after the water comes from the main tank) or after? or does it not matter? also, what does a bubble trap do?

In my setup (Ecosystem) it has two bubble traps. One before the main Refug and one after. Both chambers have bio balls in them. In my water leak test I didnt see any bubbles getting into the main take at all.
