Refugium to Grow Mandarin Food

[daplatapus]

If you have the room I'd set up another little tank, 20-30 gallons, where your sump is. You can either pump water from your sump into it and drain it back into your return section of the sump, or set your drains from your DT so that some of that water drains into your refugium, and from your refugium back into the return section of your sump. Then set up that little tank just like another DT with maybe some macro algae and non-pod eating little critters.
