Hi, I too really want to go full Triton so I started with the test, flipped my refugium to the first section, and took out my filter socks. But the problem I first discovered, was that the water was tumbling my plants and the cheato was getting into my skimmer and plugging it. I solved that with some foam on the output that flows into the skimmer section. The other problem was that the display is not as clear with without the filter socks. So now I'm not sure if I want to go full Triton, anyway some more food for thought.
This is a really good video that talks a lot about the Triton Method. In that video he talks about how most Triton systems won't have that crystal clear tank water. A lot of that particulate matter will feed the corals and the macro algae which will in turn feed the corals.
If it gets too much for me, I'll put a sock on for a day or so and run some carbon.
