Hello all!! Me again!!

move to correct forum if needed!!

ive recently upgraded to a 125litre tank with an AIO system. I got some chaeto with it and wondering if i can use the chaeto in my AIO.

on the first intake i have a filter sock and some filter floss. The second chamber would be where im thinking of putting my AIO refugium then im currently running carbon, chimipure blue and purigen and then some more filter floss and then some JBL micromec alongside ceramec, all spread out throughout the chambers.

i suppose my question is that if i keep the filter sock as a first line of filtration into the AIO then have my fuge, keep the chemipure, carbon and purigen could i grt rid of the ceramec and micromec or am i doing things conpletely backwards.

basically i want to grow copepods to end up eventually with a mandarin!!

Peac the way from Dublin, Ireland

I don’t believe there is adequate area or lighting to support it, not that it can’t be done
