OK here is the deal. I was given a 10 gal tank I am using as a refugium. I installed a 1" plenum with a 6" DSB. This only allowed me to have about 3" of water above the DSB. I already have the tank and and pump. This is the largest tank that I can fit in my stand for a refugium. I am also running a protein skimmer and an algae scrubber. The debate is this...Do I
A. Run with the DSB as is. If so, is the lack of volume a problem?
B. Dump the DSB and fill that sucker with macro algae. If so what have people had success with? Is this just duplicating what the algae scrubber is doing?
C. It's all too small to add any benefit so I should scrap the whole idea.
Any input would be helpful. Thanks in advance. :D
