I had a 90g mixed LPS/ Softies for 8 years, but moved and haven't set anything up. Dry for 3 years, we will be moving in a couple of years again. So I was thinking of setting up a grow out setup and picking up some local frags to grow out for my next Tank.

I am thinking of a mixed setup softies/ LPS/ easier SPS birdsnest and monties.

How many setups do is need, one and run carbon, or two one for the softies and one for the LPS & SPS.

Since fish load will be very small, just for algae control or do is need higher bio load to get good coral growth.

What’s a good recipe?

Thanks

I kept having issues with chemical warfare when my softies would grow and start touching sps frags, so I started a separate soft coral frag tank to eliminate the issue.

I would say get as many fish as you would usually get for bioload (algae eater blenny????) Then add an ornamental fish or two, clowns or a gramme or goby would work.
