It's prolly still a good idea to use sugar sized aragonite sand in the refugium. I've read good things on the Miracle Mud also as Soni mentioned. As the name suggests, it is a refuge for critters that may not have a chance in the display.

Does anyone that uses a refugium also run a filter sock? I ask because when I had my refugium up and running, I did not utilize any means of mechanically filtering the water from the display which resulted in a huge mess in the 'fuge sand. Not from a sandstorm but from all of the detritus that collected there. I ultimately had to remove it. I am gathering ideas to try and incorporate it again though.

This will be a good thread if it is kept going.
