Don't really know how to take the last comment........
Anyway, things are moving along. Glacially, but still moving. Ended up replacing the center if both braces with .25" acrylic rather than make new ones. Also bought a 40 breeder for $40 at petco for my sump. Hopefully I'll have time to install the baffles today. But now I come to a question. If I'm running gfo and carbon reactors is there any reason or advantage to also run a refugium? I like the idea of a pod factory for the mandarins that I will hopefully have in the future but if the reactors keep phosphates and nitrates in check do I really need the fuge?
