Hi All,
So I set up my 100g cube about 2 months ago, and everything is going well. The one component I wasnt able to integrate in my design was space in my sump for a refugium, due to stand length restrictions, there just wasnt going to be enough room for my skimmer, return pump, baffles and drains in a 24 inch long 20g DIY sump.
Then, the other day I saw a reddit post about an external macroalgae reactor, and I thought it was awesome, it could sit outside my sump and I could get the benefits of chaeto as well.
Anyone have experience with these? It would have to be an external one, so I imagine it sits outside and pumps water from your sump through the reactor with the chaeto? Any specific recommendations on model/brand? Tips or pitfalls to avoid?
Thank you!
