    refugium question

    so this may be a stupid question but i have a lot of pods growing in my hang on fuge. Do i have to put them in my tank or will they get in there on their own?

    My new 29 Build

    my nitrates are high but i just added the sump, refugium and the large skimmer that i had on my 180. So they are starting to get lower. But the bubble never was opening last well in my 180 either so i am not sure what its issue is. Maybe there is too much flow? i have been moving it around...

    So i have scored a 20 gallon sump, overflow box and am going to be using the protein skimmer that I had from my 180 along with a refugium with some cheato and maidens hair. I will post pics once they are all in place and running. This should add some much needed water to my system along with...

    Help wiht my Stylophora Coral

    when i had my frogspawn i was told to put it all the way at an end away from everything else since it likes to do chemical warfare. I would try to move it away from your other corals.

    Starting a 29 gallon nano tank

    thanks logiktest. i appreciate the advice. I have since aquired a small 3 chambered sump with skimmer and a hang on tank refugium. I was going to have the refugium lit with the same fixture that is on my tank since the refugium is going to hang on the side and the light fixture will hang over...

    Getting water from tank to sump question

    no reason to not run an overflow. where would i find the DIY plans for an overflow. I have one right now but it is far too large for my 29 and I didnt want to buy a new one again was the only reason I was trying to get away without it.

    Getting water from tank to sump question

    Would it work to not have an overflow box but instead use a pump to take water to the sump from the tank and then a pump of the same size to return it? Has anyone tried this before?
