🪨 Small media. Serious surface area.
Refuge Rocks™ are packed with porous surface area, creating valuable habitat for beneficial microbial communities and microfauna to colonize. Strong, porous, and built for performance, they help support biological filtration and a stable, thriving reef ecosystem.
Give the tiny life in your reef more room to do what it does best. 💪🪨

Lights out doesn’t mean your reef shuts down. 🌙
Hidden critters emerge, corals shift gears, pods get moving, fish settle in, and your water chemistry follows its own nighttime rhythm. 🔦🦐
Our latest EDU explores what really happens after dark and what the night shift can tell you about your reef.
👀 Check out “The Night Shift: What Really Happens When the Lights Go Out.” Link in our Facebook post!

💪 Some new MIMF & ORA sticks in from AlgaeBarn! 🪸🔥

I think I’m most excited about that Blue Bottlebrush… 👀

🪸 MIMF Yellow Lantana Montipora
🪸 ORA Indo Purple Tip Staghorn Acro
🪸 MIMF Red & Green Tenuis Acro
🪸 MIMF Blue Bottlebrush Acro

Can’t wait to see how these color up! They’ll stay at the bottom of the tank on the frag rack for the next couple of weeks. I like to wait until I’m seeing full polyp extension or some new growth before mounting them permanently on the reef. 💪

Which one are you picking?! 👇 by @algaebarn
