Last night I had to break down my tank to move it and to install a sump that would not fit though the front doors. In the process I decided that I did not like my substrate (I bought the whole setup used) It was a mix of crushed coral and sugar sized sand. After about 3 hrs of filtering my tank had all sugar sized sand and I have close to two full five gallon buckets with crushed coral.
I would like to know if I can use the crushed coral somewhere.
Could I put it in the refugium? I saw some pics online of someone who had one refugium with macro algae for nutrient export another with a 6" DSB and a few pieces of live rock for denitrification. Could I do something like that with the crushed coral. If I went with crushed coral over sugar sized sand in a refugium will I run into any advantages/disadvantages?
I have a bunch of it and I would hate to get rid of it.
Thanks for the help
