Thanks Adam! I’ll pass on the dragonet. I still want to set up a refugium at some point though -it would be nice to have live food so I can leave the tank to take care of feeding the fish for days at a time when I go on trips…. << Yes refugia are wonderful. >> I just hadn’t considered under the tank refugiums. Wouldn’t the pump kill the pods first before pumping them up to the display? << No, they go right through the pump. I'd say 90% of refugia are under tanks with pumps pushing the water back up.
