A refugium or fuge is a remote location that provide an isolated environment, separate from the main aquarium for the cultivation of macroalgae, live foods and biological denitrification.

Refugiums are great because they provide a means to export waste and nutrients and also provide a safe haven for small, beneficial organisms to grow and reproduce.

How do the refugium works? macroalgae removes phosphate and nitrate, lowering harmful nutrient levels.
