I have been reading lately about the benefits of a refugium and macro.
I saw a writeup where some folks put Chaeto in the display tank hidden behind the main rock or another where they used a plastic holder from a kitchen supply store with suction cups that held about 6-8" by 2" wide and suctioned to the glass in the rear of the display.
Question: Is it OK for chaeto to be in the main display? It seems that pods could easily run between rocks and the safe haven of the chaeto. Also, no additional lighting needed, no HOB, no additional plumbing under my already crowded stand. Thoughts?
