I've been planning on starting a refugium since I've got some serious algae growth in my show tank. I have been reading around here for about an hour and found that a lot of people use chaeto and graciliaria together in their refugiums as a nutrient export.
I was wondering whether I could use both these macros in one of those big rubbermaid containers which would act as my refugium. I will probably be using the rubbermaid containers since my refugium will be going in the garage behind my tank. The garage isn't very level at all so I decided not to use any glass or acrylic tank for it.
If I remember right, graciliaria needs some current so I will be hooking up one or two powerheads into the rubbermaids.
My question is, am I headed in the right direction with this? I'd like to get that refugium started soon so I need to find out basically what I'm doing.
