Don't expect the small fuge to do great miraculous things though.

The whole deal is if it makes you happy then I say great. I myself would not recommend a small HOB refugium. You have to remember that I have tried them. I have had a 12" HOB refugium and found that it made very little difference, so I sold it. I have had a Mandarin for eight months. It has more than doubled in size. I have no refugium. For that reason I do not advise going to the $100.00 expense. But as my signature line says that is my experience yours might differ.
