The refugium shipped today and should arrive in about a week. I've been trying to decide what to use as a substrate in it.
We want to be able to grow pods and also some macro algae & would also like the substrate to host anaerobic bacteria to help with nitrate processing. Right now, the tank has zero nitrates but I've read that some tanks tend to have their nitrate levels rise as the talk gets older.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Miracle Mud sounds interesting but there's so many negative comments about it and I wonder if it works or is just bunk.
