I am planning on making a refugium this weekend. I wanted to know what would be the cheapest way to make it and what would I need. I already have the tank but that's it. Would My main tank need to be drilled?
 
They sell hob refugiums that ive personally never used but its like a big hob filter. Some have drilled and some have overflow boxs for a refugium. When I had mine I had a trickle filter with an detached refugium.
 
What all do I need to build one? If I have to drill my tank I'm not doing it.
 
You don't have to drill the tank its just the preferred and safest method. You can buy a HOB overflow which I did have a spare one I coulda gave ya but it got hacked up and made into frag racks haha. Just make sure you get something with the appropriate gph rating for your tank and then a pump to match.

Ok I'll probably start buying that stuff this weekend.
