I posted this on the propogation forum, but it is getting very little traffic right now. I'm hopeful that some of you can help me out...
I am wonderng if 6500k pigtail lights in shop reflectors will promote good growth? Also, is there any benefit to a sand bed? Some of the corals are filter feeders. Lastly, I am thinking about linking it to my 40g tank (frag will be 55g, long story). Will this cause a problem or promote better water quality for both tanks? I currently have a 15g fuge, 15g sump/ skimmer/ return on the display tank. Skimmer is a 125 coralife super skimmer. I also run phosban/ carbon mix in a reactor. The other idea is simply to run the frag tank skimmer less and not link it to the other tank's sump. How important is a skimmer for a tank that only contains frags?
