What is in the fuge to get this result?My AIO refugium has helped immensely to keep nuisance algae at bay and keep my parameters stable!
I have a 25 gallon AIO. I run the fuge for 12 hours opposite of my main lighting. It uses chaeto which I dose with Brightwell Aquatic's ChaetoGro daily. I also dose ferrion occasionally. The fuge is seeded with apex pods which help get rid of some waste as well.What is in the fuge to get this result?
I alternate them daily, one day YellowSNO and the next Probio ...etc. I noticed a boost of microfauna growth. Various sponges, inverts, copepods started almost appearing out of nowhere lol. (They were probably already in my system but they started rapidly growing within a few weeks but didnt notice until about 6-8 weeks after first starting to dose)how did you go about to adding the probio/yellowsno. just daily dosing? what were the noticeable improvements?
How long have you been dosing yellowsno? Why did you not choose to use PNS live strain?I alternate them daily, one day YellowSNO and the next Probio ...etc. I noticed a boost of microfauna growth. Various sponges, inverts, copepods started almost appearing out of nowhere lol. (They were probably already in my system but they started rapidly growing within a few weeks but didnt notice until about 6-8 weeks after first starting to dose)
Not to mention polyp extension from the corals. The most noticeable things was rapid growth of coralline algae and extreme water clarity. I don't
have a filter sock or anything similar. The system filters on an ATS and a lot of Bio media. Usually when using an ATS it is expected that the water wont be as clear, which I actually prefer. But the PNS products achieved very clear water. Sure the PNS products are costly but personally I would rather spend on these 2 products regularly, without having to spend on anything else. Except fish and coral. I will post pics soon!
I set mine up 2 weeks ago. What are you dosing? I'm dosing 2 part, nopox, and Red Sea Reef Energy plus.Upgraded dosing to Red Sea Reef Dose 4. The accuracy and controls has made my reef more stable.
