    Here are pictures from my refugium build on a 54 gallon corner tank . Any other advice would be welcome. The lfs supplied me with the algea . What else needs to go in the refuge if anything ?

    that is looking amazing!! and your tank looks awesome. nice aquascape. I love it how you have it right by the stairs.

    you could probably get some mangroves for it? maybe?

    The light is a shop light bought from lowes . I got the idea from a web site melevsreef.com . The site was very helpful during the build.
