yes it does but you need a refugium at last 3/4 your tank or else it doesnt really help.

Any facts in that statement? I'm not looking for an argument B) , I just want to make sure. Because my fuge area is 20% of my display volume. I'm running macro right now, and it seems to keep phosphates at 0, but does little to alter nitrates. Am i better to ditch it?

I'm also running a Kent Marine Phos Reactor. So, should I ditch the fuge? How about I replace it with a 6" DSB?
