Enough for a large carpet and a few other corals, maybe a 50.

A large carpet can get up to Twenty plus inches easily once fully grown.

indirect moderate flow. A 50 gallon cube would probably be good to start with. Thats what I would do.

Any need for surge or wavemaker. Where are they found in the wild? Shallow water or deep? Info on these is hard to find.

30 inch cube sounds good. Couple of Tunze nano streams and a 7095 multi controller. Mmmmmm !
