    Refugium lighting advice from AI?

    Refugium instead of Sock?

    Question: Would it be wise to replace the filter sock in the left part of the sump with a refugium? I have a newer (1 month old) 90 gal setup with sump as pictured. Someday (months from now, I know), we'd like to add a Mandarin, which we understand needs lots of Copepods to thrive...

    Advice for Waterbox 25 Peninsula AIO Filter Chambers

    As the title suggests, I'm looking for thoughts on what to put in each of the three filter chambers for my WB 25 Peninsula AIO tank. I have been testing weekly and I am not controlling nitrates well. To keep nitrates low, I have to do multiple water changes a week right now. Currently, I just...

    New Build with Refugium (Only?)

    I'm just now ordering my dream tank and have been all over the place with the setup. It will be an inwall install in my basement so I won't be seeing it as much as my current tank. Automating it to the extent that I feel comfortable having it more out-of-sight is eating my budget. I have a 13.5...

    Refugium Fed By Dosing Pump?

    Tank heated to 96 degrees........

    This morning I noticed that all the water and a smaller 13.5 I keep at a very notable green tint to it. This essentially happened overnight. I don't keep livestock in the tank, mainly macro algae that I harvest, and a couple of days ago I had pulled the decent size load from one of my reactors...

    Should I be able to see my pods?

    Yesterday I added a 16oz jar of ecopods variety mix by algaebarn to my 13.5g fluval evo for the first time. I could tell there were some smaller (about 1 millimeter) pods floating around in the jar, but I didn’t see any larger adult ones. I added half the jar to my chaeto in the second AIO...

    What's a sump? What's a refugium?? What's a skimmer???

    Hello! Newbie here! No tank. Just questions. What I know so far is that a sump is like a DIY filter where you can hide equipment and stick a skimmer (which I also don't know the purpose of). And a refugium is a section in a sump usually with live rock, macro, or some sort of biological filter...

    Integrated Macro Tank

    Has anyone successfully integrated a macro algae into their system? I was thinking of splitting my overflow to put about 80% to my refugium and 20% to a macro tank. The output from the macro would go to the skimmer chamber in the refugium. thoughts?

    Sump question

    In the process of piecing together my first build and I’m wondering about this chamber on the used sump I bought. I assumed it was a refugium but it only has one notch on top, so no real in and out, is this typical? Would I rely on a pump to get water in and out? I don’t think it’s the fresh...
