Hey guys let me begin with the current tank stats and go from there.
29 gallon reef
2x75 watt VHO
cpr bak-pak skimmer w/ media removed and 200 watt heater in media area
70-80 lbs LR
40 lbs LS
Yellow-Tail Damsel-1"
PJ Cardinal-1.5"
2 turbo snails
very few corals only star polyps, zoanthids, and button polyps since the tank is only 9 months old
Heres the plan::
remove skimmer and set up a 30 gallon refugium 3/4 filled w/ 4x20 NO lighting
The refugium will be a combination Caulerpa/Mangrove sump and contain:
pair harleqiun shrimp
Arrow crab
4-6 mangroves
a ton of caulerpa
small clean up crew
Has anybody tried such a small tank with such a realatively large refugium?? Anything else anyone wants to recommend would be very helpful. I am going to plan on adding maybe 2 more fish to the main tank. I was thinking somewhere along the lines of a 6-line wrasse and a cherub angel. Any fish or invert reccomendations would also be appreciated.
