micro algae


well I started my refugium and need some micro algae, I went to my LFS and he said "oh someone just drop this off do you want it." He gave me the bag and I put it in my refug. Lucky I didnt start cycling it my my tank yet. I just put the outlet hose in the opening of my refug. and let that cycle to itself.

This morning I look and I must have about 100 aiptasia all over the refug. I now i am in the process of cleaning that out before I put it to the main tank...

Lucky me, what is the saying oh yeah "sometimes the best things in life are free" RIGHT.
