Aqua Medic Refugium

[stefday]

Hi,

As an add on to my threads about problems with maintaining the pH levels I was wondering if this would help.

My link

I have a Aqua one cannistor filter which I could use to link in the refugium. I cannot add a sump but was wondering if I could use this an as alternative working when the main lights are out?

I would welcome any advice or alternative ideas.

Thanks.

link doesnt work for me, but running one on a reverse photoperiod could help

What are these?

 

[ben1987]

hob = hang on back. Ones with like brackets that will sin on the side back of your tank

Thanks.

I liked the idea of the refugium as I could use a T juntion to link it to my cannister filter and have in the cupboard beneath.

Does anybody have any cheaper ways of doing this.

Thanks but really want one that sits under the tank rather than a hang on. Its not the filtration aspect but more the control of pH levels. I want one to run in opposite light periods to my main tank.

Could you use a small tank with a light to get the same effect?

Would be able to fit a tank 18" long X 18" high X 14" wide.

Problem is if I had one made it would cost a fortune in postage and can`t seem to find one large enough from normal aquarium manufacturers.

Any other ideas?
