1st time sump & refugium owner here & I have some really dumb questions… please be gentle. I’m probably over thinking this but want to make sure I’m not being careless nor overzealous in my approach. I plan on growing chaeto if that influences your answers to the below. So here it goes..
1. Tank has been wet a month & went live this weekend.. too early to set up the refugium? If yes, when is a good time?
2. The baffle that separates my refugium & return reservoir/pump doesn’t have any media or filtration between it. Should I put something there? And will that inhibit..
3. Copepods.. are they 100% dumped into the tank manually after I catch them or do they (insert The Rock’s voice) ride the people’s wave from the refugium.. into the return pump & up the line to get eaten in the DT?!?!
