    devils hand leather question

    Want to turn my wet/dry into a refugium

    I was looking for anyone that had a Pro Clear 150 wet/dry and turned it into a refugium. I was looking for any pictures and measurements of the finished setup. I wanted to try to keep a small bio-ball pocket if I was able. I do not have any room under the tank to add on a refugium. Please any...

    Originally Posted by Angler man Well, I can't tell you that you need more flow or not, but I asked the question because a lot of softies seem to dislike heavy direct flow.
