Is this a sump and a refugium?

Can i just have this under my 50g showtank. Instead of having this big huge sump underneath my tank.

Thanks for all your imputs!

Yes you can. But i would still recommend a big sump underneath. The bigger the sump the better the filter (and more stable water).

That is exactly what a sump/fuge is.
