My tank, my first, has been running about four months now. I wanted a "large" refugium, and hope to keep a variety of macro algae. In hindsight, it's not so large, about 25g out of 200g total, including a 5" sandbed. I've read that red macros have some benefit with respect to clean and healthy water, so I hope to attain several varieties. Although I have a build thread, my refugium draws a lot of my focus and interest, I tend to stare at it a lot, so I thought I'd give it a thread of it's own. Here's some current pics. If you can help my to identify the red species I already have, I'd appreciate it.
I should add, the tiny spheres on the algae turned from a translucent red to the color you see upon a day after putting it in my fuge. Hope this is normal, or, that it turns back.
