refugium

I have a Hello Reef AIO 15 gallon system. It is a very new system. The current system has the classic 3 sections in the back Section 1) Filter Sock Section 2) Charcoal, ceramic media, filter floss, and heater Section 3) Return pump with ATO prism and RODI water input I was looking at pulling...

I’m very much running out of room for all the filtration i wanna put on my tank. My sump is a 20g long diy build with the fiji cube baffle kit. So I’m thinking instead of using the refugium section in that sump as a refugium, I’ll just hook up all my external reactors and their pumps to that...

I'm going to setup a hang on the back refugium for my 20 gal reef tank what macroalgae is the best for this or has the most success

Selling my tunze mar 3181 that I don’t use anymore since upgrading to a bigger tank with a built-in refugium. Everything is working, I was pulling thick dark green chaeto every two weeks while I was using it. Everything is included and ready to run. Shipping is also included on the price...

Value of a refugium What is a refugium, and does it hold any value in a reef tank or FOWLR? Do you have a refugium, have plans for a refugium, have no desire for a refugium, or have lots of questions about a refugium? What is a refugium? A refugium is a chamber (whether incorporated in a...

Hey everyone, Trying to add a sump after upgrading from a 30 gallon tank to a 75 gallon. I’m using the linked sump kit for a 20 gallon and I’m planning on making a compartment for the filter socks, refugium, bubble trap, and outflow. My question is, at the beginning I was planning to buy a...

Hi all! I have a Landen 26g AIO and I recently added IM custom media caddy fuge in the middle chamber which almost fits perfectly. I have a copepod hotel/motel/holiday inn ;) on the bottom rack and above it have a ball of chaeto powered for 12 hours by a JBJ 4W white light. It was growing...

Percent condition, I used in different scenarios, when I introduced new fish, I used to protect corals/fish and as a refugium. Nice sturdy material.

Reefbreeders Pico Refugium Light. Used less than a week before deciding to not run a Refugium so no longer need. Like new condition w/box

Question: Would it be wise to replace the filter sock in the left part of the sump with a refugium? I have a newer (1 month old) 90 gal setup with sump as pictured. Someday (months from now, I know), we'd like to add a Mandarin, which we understand needs lots of Copepods to thrive...

As the title suggests, I'm looking for thoughts on what to put in each of the three filter chambers for my WB 25 Peninsula AIO tank. I have been testing weekly and I am not controlling nitrates well. To keep nitrates low, I have to do multiple water changes a week right now. Currently, I just...

I'm just now ordering my dream tank and have been all over the place with the setup. It will be an inwall install in my basement so I won't be seeing it as much as my current tank. Automating it to the extent that I feel comfortable having it more out-of-sight is eating my budget. I have a 13.5...

Wondering if I fed an external reservoir via 2 versa dosing pumps on a continuous water transfer if that would be sufficient water turnover for a refugium, I can run a power head in the refugium if needed, however I am just not able to feed the refugium and overflow it back with the design of my...

$120 shipped - tunze skimmer - missing little knob adjuster on the silencer. Was never there when I purchased from another member, unfortunately won’t fit my AIO tank $80 shipped - chaetomax

This morning I noticed that all the water and a smaller 13.5 I keep at a very notable green tint to it. This essentially happened overnight. I don't keep livestock in the tank, mainly macro algae that I harvest, and a couple of days ago I had pulled the decent size load from one of my reactors...

Yesterday I added a 16oz jar of ecopods variety mix by algaebarn to my 13.5g fluval evo for the first time. I could tell there were some smaller (about 1 millimeter) pods floating around in the jar, but I didn’t see any larger adult ones. I added half the jar to my chaeto in the second AIO...

Hello! Newbie here! No tank. Just questions. What I know so far is that a sump is like a DIY filter where you can hide equipment and stick a skimmer (which I also don't know the purpose of). And a refugium is a section in a sump usually with live rock, macro, or some sort of biological filter...

Has anyone successfully integrated a macro algae into their system? I was thinking of splitting my overflow to put about 80% to my refugium and 20% to a macro tank. The output from the macro would go to the skimmer chamber in the refugium. thoughts?

I originally ordered 3D printed media trays with flow direction that I would use for media bags in chamber 1 and a refugium in chamber 2… the story on that is in my other post here: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/refugium-build-decision-for-fluval-evo-13-5.1061800/#post-12656820 I still...

In the process of piecing together my first build and I’m wondering about this chamber on the used sump I bought. I assumed it was a refugium but it only has one notch on top, so no real in and out, is this typical? Would I rely on a pump to get water in and out? I don’t think it’s the fresh...

This is a high-quality acrylic hang-on-back refugium. It includes a pump, light brackets, and built-in probe holders. The unit measures 12” x 5” x 12” and can be adjusted to accommodate various tank glass thicknesses. I've had a lot of success with this unit using a Tunze waterproof light...

I put away the hardware for my 75 gallon reef tank about 20 years ago. So, with a recent move, I rediscovered all of the equipment and I started looking at my current space for the next generation 75 gallon reef for soft and stony corals with a few fish. I have Lots of factors to consider...
