I had this in the reef discussion forum, but would probally be better to post here:
I was cleaning my garage and I found a 30g patio pond and a 400w MH ballast. I would like to make a algae growing system. Basically a refugium not connected to a main tank.
Does this sound good:
30g Pond
400w Suspended MH, probally 65k
DSB of pool sand, unless I get some southdown
powerhead(s) or airlift(s) for water movement
differnt algaes and some liverock or rubble
I would have no filter. Just a bunch of algae. Probally differnt kinds seperated by eggcrate.
Basically I would like to have a bunch of algae and pods.
No skimmer for sure, I just dont wanna spend the money.
Anything I'm missing? Should I get a filter? maybe a sponge filter?
