The temperature is not your problem. 78-80 is actually ideal IMO. The problem is the temperature fluctuation in such a short time. You really dont want more than a 2 degree temperature change within 24 hours. I have the Sunpod on my 46 gallon reef. I bought a small clip on fan and set it up so...

Thanks for the help. Hopefully i can find chaeto locally. I hear its hard to come by these days.

Just realized the walls for the fuge area are 4 inches high. Would i have any problems going with less? Maybe 2"-3".

I have around 80 lbs of LR in the main display. I dont plan on putting any rock in the fuge though. Just sand, chaeto or caluerpa. Whichever i can find locally. Should i put some a small cleanup crew in there? Maybe a couple snails and hermits.

Im setting up my fuge this week. Its going to be a 10 gallon fuge on a 46 gallon main tank. Im completely changing from my wet/dry to the fuge. I have about a 3"-4" sand bed in my main tank. How deep of a bed should i put in the fuge? Actual fuge area is 10" x 11" long. Should i use live...

Bubble algae. Emerald crabs are known to rid of it. You can remove it manually. Just be careful not to pop it. Youll release spores and it will spread all over your tank.
