Recommend a siphon system for the rear sump.

Hello, marine aquarium enthusiasts! Please recommend a proper overflow system. I understand that a separate sump is better, but without much space, the sump will be at the back. I am currently considering 2 options: for the compartments: 1 - skimmer. 2 - live rock (chaetomorpha) 3 - return. Thank you in advance.

If you want, you can add a couple more barriers. Then the bubbles definitely won't be on the display.

Thankful for the advice, I will experiment, but should the transfer from the first to the second compartment be from the top or the bottom?

The second compartment in the samp serves as an aquarium, meaning the internal partitions are glued to the bottom. But the choice is yours; do as you wish.
