Sump?

[fish_NEMO]

i am planning to breed -

- Green Mandarins
- Clark Clownfish
- Banggai Cardinalfish

Now with the corals i have they would be eaten or trapped, could i place them in the sump? or would that be a bad idea???

I'm not sure how well your corals would make out in the sump, you would probably have to rig up new lighting for them

Ha Ha, he means put the babies in the sump, not the corals.

I don't know anything about mandarins, some folks do use the sump for Bangai, but the clownfish larvae will not do well without a tank of their own.

Read Clownfishes by Joyce Wilkerson! Great info there.
