I cleaned the sump and refugium as the summer vacation ended.
The detritus had accumulated quite a bit, but most importantly, there were a lot of little white shells on it that were unsightly. I didn't have any citric acid in the house, so I rinsed them in water, but it didn't remove everything.I'll clean it up with citric acid next time. I also threw out two-thirds of the rifugium seaweed and started again.
