"The recommendation for reefs is to NOT USE wet/dry filters. Reef hobbyists who happen to have a wet/dry filter left over from a previous aquarium, sometimes modify it to hold chaeto instead of bio-balls. All that's really required is a bit of chaeto and a light."
ok i understand------- now got to figure out what to do with this wet/dry........... add chaeto---- anything else?
should i #1 go and buy a refigium and loose the wet/dry housing --- or #2 try to modify it to add chaeto????
--------let m describe it--- maybe to help answer the question------ roughtly 36 inches L by 14 h, by 16 wide-----2/3's are covered by plate and under bio balls, seperated by last 1/3 space for skimmer----- (not much room for chaeto unless figure out way to remove balls)--then i will need to find light and toss the cover plate.... or just get another/new refigium----- up side to buying is i can choose any size and pickout bells and whistles-------
forgive me for clarifying the issue, but are the bioballs pointless since i have rock/sand-------- ??????
what bout something like this???
