Well, long story short I have tried a Refugium a few times now and it keeps failing. At first my sump turned into a hair algae bomb...so I turned the light off, did manual removal and moved my urchin down there for cleanup. Tried it a second time with the same results. Chaeto wouldn't grow and just died off because of hair algae. Tried it a third time and the hair algae was better under control but the Chaeto basically just fell apart and vanished. I am confused and not sure why my refugium just wont take. I tried Chaeto-Grow also with no avail. I really want a refugium, both for pods and export BUT it's getting very frustrating and about to just say screw it and go back to GFO.
