The meeting was great. Met some new people and got a good look at Jasons tank set-up. He has a really stunning orchid dottyback among other things... and lots of plumbing!

Much thanks to Jason...

Excellent!

It is always satisfying when you do something different (especially something expensive!) and see a real improvement.

Well that went fast.

I'll do another one soon though. My tank is small so fragging is sort of a necessity and I enjoy creating these little collections.

Thanks!

Tajjo can you tell me a little about your refugium conditions. Flow, lighting, tank predators, feeding etc.

I bought phyto when I bought the pods, but quit using it when they disappeared in just a few days.

Maybe I should just add it to the tank. I'll try that and see if it helps the pod population...

Return is by pump.

It does seem logical that this would destroy at least some of the tiny things that get sucked in.

But as to why they don't populate the refugium in the first...

I'm sure the mandarin gets all the ones in the main tank.

In your tank did it seem to affect the fuge pod population as well?

I thought the idea was that the refugium was to serve as a "refuge"...

Thanks for the encouragement.

I'm sure there are some in there, but seriously, I scrutinize every surface with a magnifying glass and they are rare to nonexistant.
