How do you "overfeed" the refugium with phytoplankton without it all leaking into the main tank? Also I have notice that a lot of my copepods go on the glass when there is a coat of green algae, I guess they eat that too?

What I did is shut off the partially opened valve to the refugium. This allows the phyto to sink down to the bottom and be eaten by all the little inverts including pods. Yes, they love being in the green algae and for that reason the walls of the refugium are left natural
unless the refugium is in the living room and you have a non-reefer spouse/partner.
