Yes a kato fuge... But isn't that in the sump?Are you adding a fuge? You could put sand in there...
Yes, but separated with a divider or separate receptacle. Since the media in the refugium is contained, you wouldn't have to worry about it interfering with other equipment in the sump.Yes a kato fuge... But isn't that in the sump?
Most definetely false. Sand can certainly help, but far from essential. I dont have sand in my frag system(other than small tupperware full for wrasse). My biggest issue lately is getting nitrates and phosphates above 0.0.....and i feed a huge amount.Thank you guys for your responses... Very helpful. Though I have already added the sand to the sump, I may end up taking it back out. I have just begun to cycle my tank so I have lots of time to get things working properly...
From what I was reading "though possibly false" is that I couldn't support such a big bio load without sand..?
Hey I'm from Rocky mountains too!!! Lol San Luis valley. Bout you?Yes, but separated with a divider or separate receptacle. Since the media in the refugium is contained, you wouldn't have to worry about it interfering with other equipment in the sump.
