I have a 29 gallon mostly sps reef tank w/ a 18 gallon sump and i just built a 12 gallon refugium. The refuguim is pumped by a rio 800 in the sump and naturaly draining back into the sump via gravity. I just obtained a good size buch of a variety of maco alges from a local RC reefer (sharkdude). i beleave razor calurpa, taxafolia, and a bunch of others. Now i have read some posts on this fourm about the fact that calurpa can sometimes go "sexual" when harvested and release toxins into the system. Being that i have very sensitive sps corals this concerns my very much.
I would like to know what the signs are when it go's sexual, and also what conditions allow that to happen. I have had great sucsess with growing my sps colonies. I would be extreamly sad to know something i was trying to better my system with actually killed them. I will take some pics tonight so you all will see the species i have aquired better.
cheers
