LifeReefugiums

Add a LifeReefugium to your sump, trickle filter, or Berlin System to reduce nitrates, promote the growth of copepods, algae, and other microorganisms beneficial to both corals and fish and overall water quality.

These can be installed on most any sump or filter, even INSIDE your current sump. The one pictured is connected to a Lifereef Berlin System. (The LifeReefugium is the unit on the left)
