Wanting to switch to the Triton Method

Just because they say it, doesn't make it true, needed, or useful.

But I certainly see where you got it from. I just disagree with it and cannot really see a scientific rationale for needing it.

I agree it may not be needed, But I figure it can't hurt (except in the $$$ from the more expensive return pump).

I find it funny that all the discussions regarding the Triton Method all discuss implementation details, which is cool, but my biggest concern is that it all hinges on having triton test your water samples regularly and adjust. What the ^%$ happens if triton goes out of business?? I have to redesign my sump? lol

A refugium is still a good nutrient export method, even if you go to another method of maintaining chemistry.
