Nice job. What are you running for light in there?

Looking great guys. I am going to get mine going shortly too. I am hoping to finally win the nitrate battle.

Took mine down as I never had any issues with nitrates and my phosphates was a leaching issue. But I now have no po4 or nitrates. I thought if I do have nitrates the 7 clams I have will take care of them.

Is there anything documented about these things being built on a large scale for large aquariums like over 300G that would completely replace a refugium?

Check www.algaescrubbers.net or reefcentral. Some people claim that you don't need a skimmer with these but I am still running mine.
