So I have a 40 gallon breeder and a 20 gallon sump with LOTS of bio media for around 6 months now. It’s getting to the point where I would like to actively work on establishing a copepod population.
I have no refugium but am considering getting those hob ones mainly for the pods. I really don’t want to bother with it but if it’s necesarry I will.
First question is if it is even necessary knowing my sump has tons of bio media and my tank has plenty of dry rock and 2 inch sand bed. Maybe I can add a loofa if I really have to.
Second is who makes the best hob refugiums out there?
Thirdly how long should I turn off my skimmer and what about my mesh filter socks?
