well my refugium isnt really a refugium. everything ive put in there seems to die. i have a mangrove in there now but the cheato and red algea went bye bye

the two automatic feeders that feed pellets twice a day, to me, seem low currently. I was going to up them but maybe i wont. The pellets get devoured so quickly, very well before the 2min mark which is said on the packaging.

It does seem you feed alot more nori than I do. 4 tangs, 1 foxface and 1 lawnmower blenny that eats off the nori clip which i clip on in a 2x2in folded square of 5x2 nori.

i will look into feeding less since my tangs look like footballs right now.

i feed my tangs the two squares mainly cause of their size my yellow is fairly large and he doesnt graze like he use to theres not much left to graze as of recently and plus their not the only algae eaters in there just about all my fish are grazers if not always than at times not sure on your set up but mine has a fair bit of flow and a good turnover to my sump so i imagine most of my fish waste is gone right away between that and my livestock

Not to worry. Herbivores crap way more than carnivores. Ever see the size of a cow pie?
