    Dumb question... water flow.

    Hi all! I have a Biocube 32 and might have jumped the gun with regard to filtration and "upgrades"... I bought the inTank Media Basket AND the inTank Fuge Basket... Well, I thought I would put my (quickly growing in the second chamber of the AIO!) ball of Chaeto in the Fuge. BUT. How will...

    Is a refugium effective at nutrient export? And is there scientific literature to back it up?

    I’ve been running a refugium since day one but never found it made much of a difference with nutrient export. It definitely grows pods but I wonder if porous media would do the same. I’m wondering if there’s any scientific literature addressing any of the following questions: Any studies...

    Waterbox 60.2DX Sump dilemma

    Hello All, So I'm looking to get a waterbox 60.2DX because the standard sump in my opinion is straight trash. I am having trouble understanding the DX sump for the 60.2 because there is an ATO reservoir in it when I could be using that real estate for a refugium for my tank. (picture below for...

    Refugium Do’s and Don’ts

    Any current best practices for setting up and maintaining a fuge these days? Any life that should be kept out or added specifically besides the macro algae? Happy to hear anyone’s suggestions for setting up a good fuge. Good as in good for nutrient export and good for the overall health of the...

I’ve seen some breeder boxes...

    Ideal Refugium Flow Rate?

    Hello everyone! I recently set up a tank (within the past couple months) and have been trying to determine what an ideal flow rate is for my refugium section. A little background... I have a 150 gallon display tank with a 13 gallon refugium, and about 15-18 gallons of additional water in the...

    External Refugium setup and thoughts

    Im deciding on whether or not I want to set up a refugium. Really the decision is on how I want to set it up. I love the mandarian Goby (who doesn't) and feel like the best way to keep one is with a fuge. I had one for 2 years previously, but had to move and tear down the tank and sold him. I...

    So...what does a successful/thriving fuge look like on the inside!

    So, I’ve been at this lifestyle for over 10 years and until the past year I’ve always had HOB equipment. Now I have a 90G display picture framed in the wall with a 75G sump/fuge. Wondering what other lifers fuge looks like. My Cheato grows like weeds and the Copepods are taking over the Cheato...

    To Sump or not to Sump...

    Hi All, Still fiddling with what I want my filtration system to be like on my first reef tank (20g High). Right now I am running an Aquaclear 70 HOB that I modded into a refugium but I'm not wild about it. Cheato inevitably gets into the DT, I'm not really doing anything for protein skimming...

    Fuge Set up

    I have been tinkering with a new fuge, and I was hoping I can post some pics to see if any of you can see if there is something I might be doing wrong or something I can do better. I’m getting great growth but I’m always looking to better my reef. please be honest, I’m on my 3rd year in the...

    Hitchhiker on an Acan Frag

    Looks like some sort of a pod but its huge? Roughly 5mm body and a couple more with the antlers. When its swimming about its straight like a stick and then when i hit it with some flow it curls up into a c-shaped ball. One of the good guys? Can I throw it into the fuge?

    AIO Build Tunze skimmer or fuge for BioCube 32?

    Just wondering what would be a better choice: The Tunze 9001 skimmer or the InTank refugium with chaeto and a growlight. Either way, I already have the InTank media basket. I've heard mixed opinions so I'm looking for advice. Let me know!

    Fuge in a 20 Gallon?

    Hey everyone, l’m wondering if anyone has ideas or any experience with building a Fuge for a 20 gal Waterbox. The back section of the waterbox has three sections, one for a filter sock, a middle which is currently empty, and a pump in the third slot. Would it be possible to make a Fuge to...

    Ways to shield sump from refugium lighting?

    Hi all, I just picked up the AI Prime Fuge light and love it! But is it bright! :) I’m brainstorming some ways to shield/block the light from flooding the rest of the sump: - Cinefoil? This stuff is pretty awesome - not the prettiest necessarily, but I’m leaning this way. Essentially built...

    Diy sump for biocube 16

    So, this biocube is an sps tank, it has been running for about a year or more, a few months ago i had to go out of town and other people were caring for my tanks, sadly nobody knew how to dose and stuff so my sps tank crashed, although one large colony actually survived the crash. The tank is...

    Fuge Return, does it matter where in sump

    I just finished plumbing a 50 gallon Fuge and have the Fuge overflow returning to the final chamber of the sump where my DT return pump is. I did this thinking it will give the pods the best chance to make it to the DT a floor up and 15’ away. I have a independent pump feeding the Fuge from...

    What powerhead for Fuge?

    I recently upsized my sump and now have an 11 gallon refugium for my RSR 250 system. I have Chaeto in there and need some type of powerhead in there as the flow for dosing, although I have a Vario 2 at full speed, is not quite enough to prevent precipitation of 3A & B with the way the water...

    New York WTB Coralife Biocube 29 Intank basket and Fuge

    Hi guys, I'm looking for a media basket and fuge setup for a coralife biocube 29 I'm setting up. I'll take both, or either--Preferably both if buying used as its cheaper to ship from one location/the cost benefit of buying used is eaten up by shipping. Thanks!
