Looks good, will you be adding anything in the 2nd chamber like sand, mud, etc, or just macroalgae?

Well I have a little chaetto now but not sure I've always read Miracle mud is good it's bad who knows I do love how mangrows look though lol what are you running?? Any suggestions with personal things you've done

First morning had the skimmer on over drive yesterday today it already started getting its first green poop lol

I run more than one kind of macroalgae, and run miracle mud. I don't really use my fuge for nutrient transport but more as a place for pods to grow. I added a bio-pellet reactor to aid with that and use all-in-one pellets, plumbing the reactor return to the intake on my skimmer. The skimmers return drops into a filter sock to catch any of the GFO particles and whatever else it can.

I had mangroves in my fuge section for a bit, but had no luck getting them to grow so pulled them out, thinking I will give them a shot again in the fish room I'm building out.

Yeah I'm hoping for that as well I do wanna own a mandirin one day and want lots of food for him and other fish hey question were did you get those water containers I seen in your fish tank room trying to do something like that for my garage just picked up a rodi unit want to have containers like that to collect it everyone does the trash bin ones but I don't like it your setup looks good though
