I am in the process of planning my first salt water tank. I have a 55 gallon tank coming to me in the next few weeks with a stand. I was planning on placing a sump underneith it in the stand but I also want to make a refugium/farm tank in the system off to the side. I want to do this both to increase the total water of the system to 75 gallons but also so that There is a large are free from fish or maintenance equipment that beneficial algae such as Red Gracilaria and small critters such as pods have somewhere to grow. Is this feasible and if so, is it worth it or will it just be more work for no reason?
I made a rough pic of what I am talking about in case I was not clear in my description.
Hmmm... Anyone know how to get rid of one of those pictures?
