just got through reading a thread about sand in fuges..
I have a 200 gallon tank.. has about 2 inches or more of sand and rubble (the larger reef substrate that you see in lfs)...
I have two 50 gallon tanks attached... one has about 8 inches of sand and a lot of lr rubble, chato, etc.. the other is a fully decorated tank with only 2 corals in it... normal lr landscaping.. used to raise sea horses in it..
Ive never had issues of nitrates, phosphates, etc.. but i am always looking for opinions..
i have a lot of corals, fish etc.. tank is around 6 years old but i sold all corals off and then had a tornado 2 years ago, so i just started adding corals last year... my corals tend to grow fast.. at least before the tornados... i used to give away digitata all the time as it would grow inches in a month or two... now i dont know if its cause im just starting with frags or if its cause of something else... growth is nice... but..
i average around 20-30 frags off of my stuff a month, but i used to do a lot more than that..
anyways.. i can do photos of the setup if someone wants to see them...
