    Live rubble is better than LR for pods. I use old snail shells and pieces of LR I have crumbled with a hammer into 1' rubble. This is what I have in my refugium.

    Get one kit for your fuge and one for your display tank, eh?

    do i have to have LR or rubble in my refuge for the pods to live and multiply. I have macroalgae in there as well.

    Rubble works best it seems!

    about how fast do they multiply. I have some on my fuge's walls and on my main tank's walls. I also see little worm type things on my fuge's walls. I heard that they also like to live on macroalgae.
