| DIY Refugium With Web Link Refugium made 5 months ago as it's being tested to hold water. Constructed with 1/4 acrylic. In the right rear corner is the live rock rubble tower with holes drilled at the bottom of the tower to allow over flow water to exit. No bubbles from the bottom. This refugium is 24x17x16. I'll be building a larger refugium using the same design to accommodate a larger skimmer and able to support a 3' T5 lighting to grow frags on height adjustable frag racks. I've attached the link where I got the idea, the DIY uses a 55 gal tank.
