| I met Inwall (Curt) at Inland Aquatics in Terra Haute for a local reef club meeting and they have some of these type filters running and have good success with them. Nice place to check out if you are in Indiana. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)

| Thats what was the hot lick before the refugiums what I used to do was to lay sheets of acrylic the grow the algae on then just lift then out in a rotation fashion then bleach soak the oldest one in there with a new clean one .. They are a good filter system. _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) |
