sump

[alkurtys]

I changed my refugium into a sump with just my aqua c 120 in there and a magdrive 12 and a rio 1700 return and heater only. I had a 2 inch deep sandbed with live rock rubble and chaeto but I decided to go with just a sump. But my bubble coral is not fully open today and was wondering if it had anything to do with the switch? I made a eggcrate box and hung the chaeto underneath the spray bar return in the display. Does anyone think that because of the switchover I may of had a spike in my nitrates?
