What do ya need for details? Mine only had one size option because i used scraps.... can get ya measurements if you want or can take a bunch of pics so you can see what i did.... the key is to use the knitting plastic mesh and scuf it up so its really ruff and lay on the bottom. That will give you a good substrate for the algae to grow on and easy to scrape off once it gets too thick. I am losing the tube lights as well and going back to cfl grow bulbs from home depot they work great

TEST TIME .....

So now that the tangs are gone i only got a couple yellow chromis a couple 3 barred damsels my false perc clown my eel and my shrimps plus the new algae scrubber im gonna see how long i can stretch my wc before anything starts to get out of whack... so far has been six weeks no wc and nitrate is barely detectable ( yes test is still good as confirmed by lfs double check) and everything else seems good minus alk is a lil higher than wanted but that was my fault lets see how long i can go and now i have that algae scrubber working as well as my refugium with deep sandbed.

This might get interesting

[Kevin Tran]

I set up my 50 gallon tall for the seahorses today and it has a 25 gallon sump I cut some baffles out to make a fuge and going to work up a scrubber I am going to use a desk type lamp on it with a cfl bulb also that should be ok for 3 "horses" what you think.

 

[Kevin Tran]

I need to reconfigure my sump to add refugium, the scrubber fuse with the refugium or is in the refugium?
