    Sump/refugium

    OK I have decided to go with a refugium for my 30g as opposed to a wet/dry filter. My question is why do they overflow? I may be completly wrong, but I have read on this forum about these things overflowing and flooding someones house. Is there a way to avoid this?

    Goby Question

    OK well let me ask a stupid question. Besides size, what makes a larger tank say 55 or 100g able to support a goby? Why would a tank that size be able to sustain a population of pods large enough to keep a goby alive?

    broken claw on cleaner shrimp

    Just woundering if your shrimp made it. I was cleaning my tank, and my shrimp got in the way and his arm came off as well. He was dead 2 hours later. Good luck
