Refugium for Fluval Evo 13.5

[nanoShearer]

A little heavy but then again I am likely on the light side... I use a half between my evo and 40 breeder daily (plus a little neck clam twice a week in 40).

I can try going with a quarter cube and see if that helps. Thanks!

What light is this?

Can’t find how to share the url to it but here’s a screenshot. It’s actually a really good price. I paid $40

I can't quite tell how you mounted this in your original picture. I have another AIO i built that I am using one of these https://www.google.com/search?ei=6g...hUKEwj7ou_fmo3nAhWGm1kKHU4ADGAQ4dUDCAs&uact=5
Not seeing much growth out of chaeto and I am wondering if its the light...

I used heavy duty 3m double sided tape I found at my local target, though I have heard of others using industrial velcro strips which might be a better option however I couldn't find any. I think the honeycomb design of the fluval really lets light in. It’s important to get it from the long side of the chaeto rather than the top narrower side. If you have a blacked out sump in the back. You can probably razor a square and peel off the paint/sticker.

Thanks for that StephDaReefer.
I found the latest version of that on Amazon. Will probably be buying some for my set up.
