reduce microbubbles getting back into the display.

o ok i c how much does cheto effect water paremeters

well i think it aids alot in nutrient export but two other benefits is it gives a place for copods and other critters to get jiggy with it and also if you have any herbavores they will chow down on it... and it is free food then... i have a 30ish gallon devoted to a refugium and i feed my tank like every other day or so because of the copods and such

ok so it basicly serves as a home for little critters

You could probably set up another rubbermaid within your sump to create a compartment.

bnmir's idea is a good one i saw some one on here did that and just had a pump to pump water into the fuge and then it just over flowed the sides

ya i tryed that it just didnt fit right i had problems fitting pumps and everything

What I ran under my old 55g. I was going to do a mineral mud/mangrove section in the middle before I ended up upgrading to a 90g system.

is that just a 10 gallon tank or a 20 long

 

[Tswifty]

20 long
