    All of my macro algae is growing so fast. Unfortunately getting some brown and red stuff from adding new sand.

    Got rid of the 37 gallon fuge. It was just too much water and too many chances. I will show updated photos of everything tonight.

    I want to focus on just my reef tank so I decided to get rid of the 37 gallon refugium and just stick with the 2 10 gallon sumps and my macroalgae in the return baffle. Here are some photos and of my protein skimmer.

    What light did you go with? Tank is looking good, did you change out sand and rock? I would help with plumbing but I am so not good at that stuff....I'm sure some others will chime in with assistance!

    I went with the reefbreeders controllable fixture. Figured out the plumbing. I just needed to get rid of the 37 gallon refugium. I like the tank much better now
