check my AquaClear refugium (3pics)

[cokevanilla]

hello

just finished it today and I would like to share it

materials: old floppy disk holder, some eggcrate, zipties, aluminium foil, 50/50 20watts PC bulb and a dremel;

here are the pics :

I'll get some paint one day and have it painted black......


questions:

1. can I buy some sand and put it inside my fuge...like 1" depth because I have none left; will it have an impact on my tank?

2. how long do you keep the lights running over the chaeto?


tank is up and running for a year; (snails, corals, 1shrimp, crabs, no fish yet)\\\\



thank you
