I have a new ADHI refugium that has been running for four months, with gracilaris and chaeto, 3 inches of a sand mixture (part fine part medium coarse), three inches of miracle mud, and topped off with .5 inches of GARF grundge that was added on a whim. On top of this I have about 3-4lbs of live rock pieces. Everything SEEMS to be working fine.
I have read on wetwebmedia.com that it is not good to mix mud and sand substrates, and they should be kept in different compartments. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Should I change the layering order of the substrate components?
Does this really matter or am I being paranoid? I want to get the most out of my new fuge!
