I was wondering the same thing a few weeks ago. In the end I decided not to go with it for a couple of reasons:
- The refugium space in my 36g sump wasn't large enough for adequate nutrient export in my 150g display
- Only pod larva would be small enough to survive a trip through a return pump. Seemed better for them to have their own system if I wanted to raise pods as a source of food
- Additional expense in terms of new hardware, etc.
I think refugiums are a neat concept but not super practical in the grand scheme of things. It would probably be better to set up an inexpensive 10 gallon tank and use it as a refugium.
