You can't grow artemia in there, those are brine shrimp, they need a different enviroment than a reef tank gives. If it were my in tank refugium, I'd throw it away and get an under tank refugium, but since you already got it, get a chunk of cheatomorphia macroalgae and put it in there, and dump a bottle of tiggerpods in with it. it'll give the pods a place to breed without worry from the fish and the macro algae will help with nutrient exportation. make cleaner water for ya. Is that more along the lines of what you need, lol.
