There are films you can buy that will stick to the back of the tank so it isn't see through.

Your refugium should have a light cycle opposite that of the lights in the display tank. The trickle of light might look nice when the main lights are out.

yea that’s what i thought but i’m battling bryopsis and when the tank lights where off it was like the light was in the display tank itself lighting the entire back side of the rocks and i want to try and use the bryopsis against itself and have it only grow in that one place
