    I found a CPR AquaFuge 2 Hang-on Refugium (large sized) from a person and he is asking $75 for it. Do you think it is worth it?
    Is it big enough for a 55 gallon?
    I have no way of having a sump/fuge so I thought maybe this would be a good solution?
    what do you guys think?

    I have never used one but looks like it would work good since you have no room in the stand.

    For a 55 this would be better then not having one.
    Does he have the light?


    Is your display already far enough away from the wall?

    As long as you have enough clearance behind the tank I think its worth it. I would try to haggle the price still and ditch any bio bale if its included. I have a cpr bak pak skimmer, seperate fuge, and it works great for me. The only mod I did was change that air rectrictor screw thing for one of those ones you get w/ powerheads. I'm sorry I suck at explaining this, but I think its called a needle air valve. I get about a 1/4 cup of skimmate daily and the fuge on yours will be just fine.

    Yes I have enough clearance behind the tank. I already have a HOB skimmer and Aqua Clear filter.
    No it doesnt come with the lights.

    I also would try to get him down a little maybe 50 bucks
    Although still worth it if he doesn't budge.
