Is the chaeto refugium better than the ceramic?I've got the Nuvo 30L, I have tried both the IM filter caddy as well as the inTank caddy.
I run inTank filter floss up top on both caddies. On the left side caddy I have a small chaeto refugium and on the right caddy I have a Chemipure blue bag in the bottom compartment.
Recently I ditched the chaeto since it got fried by my light when I was away and now am running some ceramic for added biofiltration surface area.
Well they both do different things in a way, chaeto can help stabilize pH after lights out and eliminate more phosphates while more biofiltration is just assisting the typical nitrogen fixing cycle.Is the chaeto refugium better than the ceramic?
So the tank only came with 1 caddy and no filter sock, should I buy another caddy or run a filter sock?Well they both do different things in a way, chaeto can help stabilize pH after lights out and eliminate more phosphates while more biofiltration is just assisting the typical nitrogen fixing cycle.
Filter socks are a pain to clean. Easier to just replace filter floss imho.So the tank only came with 1 caddy and no filter sock, should I buy another caddy or run a filter sock?
So get another caddy and run some biofilter in the bottom with filter floss in the top 2 chambers?Filter socks are a pain to clean. Easier to just replace filter floss imho.
Yes get an additional caddy. Put filter floss in the top portion.So get another caddy and run some biofilter in the bottom with filter floss in the top 2 chambers?
