Hello all I’ve posted here many times and have learned a whole collection of things having been informed on how to stock the tank, setup my skimmer and all hosts of things now I’m here with a question about setting a sump/refugium but for a nano tank! Ive got a fluval evo which is 13.5 gallons...

The fan of my Kessil H160 burnt out and Kessil isn't being helpful. They want to charge me $100 to mail it to them with no guarantee of repair - just a diagnoses before another expen$$ive corporate repair. And I'm in Canada and don't want to pay to mail it to the USA. Has anyone replaced the...

Hi, I am having a very hard time deciding on whether or not to get a protein skimmer or a refugium for my 20gallon AIO cube. I have 3 chambers in the back of my AIO, the first has the heater, the middle has filtration like a sponge, carbon, and ceramic, and the final has the return pump. I would...

I would have assumed that this question was asked before, but I didn’t see it anywhere. But, I’m sorry if it’s a repeat and I just missed it. ‘Soon I will be ready to set up a 50g reef aquarium, with a 20g sump. My plan is to incorporate a refugium into my sump. I’ve read a lot of articles and...

Hey all, I’ve recently bought a Scooter Blenny for my Waterbox 20. He readily takes frozen food, been feeding him frozen copepods which he readily eats, and he picks at what live copepods he can find in my tank. Id like to construct a refugium for breeding pods, but just a rubble refugium. I...

Hello! So I have been trying to grow Chaeto, and to not avail, it ends up going clear and brown. My nutrients are 15-20 ppm for nitrates and between .1-.003 ppm for nitrates. I have my lights on for an 8-10 hour photo period, with a 60% intensity at 7 inches above the surface, Chaeto being down...

Hello! I am new to the refugium world. My Chaeto is turning white in some spots, but definitely has enough light. I run the AI Prime Fuge on 60% for a 10 hour photo period that was acclimated at 50% of that onward. Secondly, I might not have enough flow, because I rigged up a baffle in my sump...

I need some help from the vets around here. My 125 gallon has been up for 2 years come june. I've had GHA for going on probably 8 months. At first I tried additive solutions then realized those caused other problems just as annoying as GHA. For the past 4-5 months I've pretty much left it alone...

Wanted some advice on setup for the refugium, what's the best setup or do people recommend? Currently, I have sand, a bit of live rock and a bit of Chaeto with Kessil A80 Tuna Flora light that's on from 6pm to 6am. Still have problems with my Nitrates & PO4. Wondering if I should just get rid...

Hello everyone, I would love the opportunity to pick your brains a bit. So I am in the process upgrading from a 54 gallon corner tank to a 125 gallon I bought off of Facebook. (Pictures to follow). I cleaned it up, drilled it, and modified the stand. I now have a 30 gallon three stage sump and a...

Looking to start a refugium in my waterbox marine x series. Was just looking for some ideas on how to do so, deciding between a hob type to put in the sump or creating another chamber in my sump for it. Also what lights does everyone recommend for the refugium? Thanks!

Key points: Refugiums and algae turf scrubbers can't run nutrients low enough to run an ultra low nutrient system; They make a system phosphate-limited, so you're always going to have residual nitrate; Algal exudates tint the water yellow and require protein skimming; Quote from 5:17: "[a...

Currently trying to use this light on its blue setting to grow chaetomorpha. Already had the light so I figured its worth a shot and fits nicely mounted on the sump but I see a lot of red light spectrum in refuge lights so not sure if its a necessity or just better for growing. I know its better...

i have been able to eliminate bryopsis almost completely from my sps system with fluconazole . Unfortunately after a few months it comes back. I am currently running triton method so every time I dose the fluconazole I have to pull out my chaeto. going forward I would like to just leave...

Hey I am wanting to use a section of my Redsea reefer 350 v3 sump for some chato to help in nutrient control as I don't wish to use Nopox and id like to try the more natural approach i can see with my eyes. Unfortunately the 350's sump all be it spacious gets cramped once you have; heaters...

I am coming from the world of planted tanks where the “best practice” for starting a new tank is to fill it with plants (of course, there is still lots of debate on that as there are in all things). Does this still apply to a salt water tank refugium? Is it best to start it up on day 1 while...

First time posting on reef 2 reef. Been asking for advice from a Facebook good but haven’t had any luck. I have a 75 gallon display with a 18gallon sump. I have a fuge going, but to me the rites and phosphate are still to high. I had .17 on the phosphate and 17.6 on rites. Done a 20% water...

I am upgrading my 40 gallon reef tank to a 75 gallon reef tank. The stand that I built is 50” tall x 18.25” deep x 48.25” wide. The rimless tank brings the height up to 68” which will be great for viewing but horrible for maintenance. I will be running a 29 gallon sump with a Simplicity 240 DC...
