hi everyone. i finally got a 135 gal tank and have it all set up and running with water. so far the only thing in it is sand and a few snails and hermits that were in the sand. i figure before i put any livestock in it i should get my refuge "stocked". this is my first big tank, and the first time i'm dealing with a refugium, so i'm not exactly sure what i all need to put in there. jynxgirl has been giving me some ideas, but i thought i'd ask here as well and see what everyone else puts in there. would i be better off going to a fish store and purchasing things, or is there a website that would be good to order things from? any ideas and suggestions are very welcome. thanks, jessica

how deep is deep? i'd estimate mine to be about 2 1/2- 3 inches deep.
