Hi There,
As most of you should know, the RSR 170 sump is not designed to host a refugium section, and I definetly want to grow macro-algae in my tank.
Therefore, I'm considering two options:
- Add a Algae Reactor.
I would buy something similar to https://www.marinedepot.com/AquaMaxx_XL_Algae_Reactor_Package-AquaMaxx-UJ5356-FIFRAS-vi.html
I will place it outside the cabinet, because I'm not totally sure it will fit inside the RSR 170 cabinet.
Would that be a wise idea?
- Swap the sump for another sump with a built-in refugium like these

or
https://www.marinedepot.com/Trigger...-Trigger_Systems_LLC-6E81638-FIFRBSCU-vi.html
I wanted some feedbacks of RSR 170 owners who are growing algae and the method the way they are doing it. Any pictures will be welcome.
The option of converting the ATO into a refugium is not the table since I'm not a handyman at all.
Thank you all
