Zoa Frag Tank

[m0nkie]

Hi guys. It's about time I invest in a frag tank. Some insurance for my more expensive collections.

this tank will be for zoa only. Frag tank with racks. size is 2x2x1

Questions: I never had a frag tank before

1) Lighting. I have kessil 360WE and I think zoas are doing great. anyone think supplementing with T5 would enhance the color and growth? Also, anyone with newest Radion? Prefer those over Kessil on zoas?

2) Parameter. I've heard people raise parameters for softies tank. Should I raise the parameters higher? my DT tank is Cal450, Mag1300, Alk9.5

3) Fish. What type of fish should I keep for a frag tank? I'm thinking a 6 line wrasse? or something to eat algae?

4) Filtration. What do people use for small frag tanks? I see table tanks with small hang on skimmers. didn't live rocks or sump. What do you guys recommend for a sumpless setup?

thank you!

I just picked up a 20g aio tank for the same purpose. Was planning to use the new kessil 160w.

I'm running 360WE and 150 Deep Ocean Blue. Love it. looks great and great growth.

with the frag tank I can experiment on lighting.. I'm thinking about adding some T5HO to see who grows faster

Nice I was considering t5 ' s myself too, but I really like the kessils.
