    Post Refugium Substrate

    Hello All,
    I did a search to try and find out what everyone likes to use as their fuge substrate, but the threads were from 2002. I am thinking views may have changed. Here are some of the popular choices I have found. Which do you like and why?
    Mineral Mud Carib Sea Refugium Substrate
    Kent Marine BioSediment
    EcoSystem Mineral Mud
    Carib Sea Live Sand
    Walt Smith's refugium Mud



    I am waiting to put my HOB Fuge on the tank until I return from my little Christmas vacation.

    Re: Refugium Substrate

    I voted live sand, but for cost reasons I basically buy dry sand and let the LR's inoculate it w/life
