I get it, I have that set up in one of my tanks. Doesn't seem to affect it, actually the chaeto does really well, it spins because of the drain.


I think seahorses are cool.

Id put the Cheato after the skimmer.... Because I wouldn't want all the pods to be sucked up in the skimmer and go to waste.

I put macro algae in the first chamber where the drain is. The skimmer used to be in the second chamber but I have low bio load so I put the skimmer in the shed.

It will work fine. Pods do what they want anyway., some reefers are of the opinion slower flow is better for chato and nutrient export.
if the chato grows there then it is fine
