ok yall got a question. I am looking to buy a tank and make a refugium out of it. I already have one that i have modified ( the store bought one ) but it wasnt built for refuge just filter skimmer and return pump. Anyways how much water should be above my dsb with cheato on top of it? Looking at a 36" long tank but its only 12" high and cant fit an 18" high tank below my display. Scared to have only 2 inches of play before overflow eeek. my current sump is 16" high and 28 inch long. I have a dsb in display do i need one in refugium? or can i get a way with like 3 inches. idk what to do. all advice would be great.
Over all looking to extend my sump longer than 28" because out of room and would like to have a more area pre and post refugium and have a longer refugium to catch detritis and better breeding ground for critters . I wish they made a tank that was 36L x 12d x 16h maybe a 30 gallon long? cant seem to find any though
