    Replumb HOB CPR refugium to fit new tank

    Hi I'm wondering if any of you have taken a prefab refugium and reworked the plumbing pieces to be slightly different? I have a large cpr fuge that I don't want to part with, but it doesn't fit my tank as is. I can get it to hang on the back, but the pipe that should connect to the pump has to...

    Overflow refugium

    That was quick! Well, would a substrate growing macro be a good alternative or should I not do a refugium at all? I have gutter guard but I have so many returns it's going to be a pain in the butt to fashion a cover.

    Switching from fish only to seahorse and sponge

    Hi everyone! Im so glad i heard about this sight. I'v been wondering where the seattle crowd was. I got into the hobby in April, since then all money and time has gone into making the tank more efficient. A few months ago I acquired a 55g acrylic hex for near nothing. I decided to turn it...
