Time to start over :o(

LOL Understocked by who"s standard??Fish are filthy not food!
I like refuges and turf scrubbers to remove nutrients.

 

Actually, they were your standards, I followed some of your recommendations you gave a few years ago Problem is I just couldn't stop! During this cleanup I will be taking several of my little friends back to the LFS

LMAO. Remember.I used to get hit in the head alot.

 

And you have the same problem I have, no cushioning on top What do you think about those hang-on-the-outside refugiums? There is an AquaFuge2 AF2LG that is 25.5 x 4.5 x 12 that comes with its own pump and lights. It seems to fit the KISS analogy You always seem to have logic and experience in your replies so I would love to hear your opinion on them

 

Oh ty.
I have been considering one for my cube actually.Unfortunately I have no experience using one.I would think keeping the pump clean would be the worst part.Maybe someone using one will chime in.

 

I've decided to order one of the large units, thought I would give it a try and feed back At this point I have nothing to loose |

 

I never used a hob refugium but a friend of mine did. There was a bit of maintenance involved with keeping the pump clean but it was easily accessible. Within a few months it was crawling with life. I believe his was to small for his volume of tank but it was really cool and we'll built.

 

Thanks for the info I got the largest one they make, holds about 5 gal. and comes with a light. It should arrive later this week How did your friend set it up? like a normal refugium or - - - ?

 

Well, I'm taking Vinny to heart I'm looking into a new tank of about 200 gal and keeping my existing stock only. While working on some details a major problem came to mind. All my "stock" will be in those 55 gal trash cans while I'm setting up but how can I put them all back in the new tank before it cycles? They can't stay in the trash cans for weeks can they? A couple at a time maybe Any thoughts or solutions out there HELP!
