Hi gang.
I've just installed a mini-refugium. I've got a 150 gallon tank with a wet-dry filter in the sump. Yesterday I removed the bio-balls and made a mini-refugium out of an old wet-dry filter. I've put 25 pounds of live sand in the bottom and I'm planning to add calurpa (sp?) this afternoon. I've got a Coralife "grow-light" from a 10 gallon tank hood on the refugium.
Can I leave that light on 24/7 to maximize plant/algae growth? What other critters do you guys recommend adding - and when? Where can I get those criters?
