Just joined the forum (which is pretty impressive)...
I've ran nano's in the past, last one over 5 years ago, and decided to start a 29 gallon. Currently cycling with a deep sand bed, about 10 lbs of base rock, and 8 lbs of live rock. Penguin Powerhead (i forget the model), heater and a Aquaclear 50.... Standard 50/50 Reef light from Zoo Med (T5 coming real soon)
I've noticed thru my current readings that many don't use filters anymore, yet choose refugiums or sumps? I have the notion to build my own hang on refugium. Question is, if I build a refugium, do I still need the Aquaclear hob filter? And do I use the suggested components that came with it? (ie. sponge, carbon sack, ceramic cubes)
