[LA-Lawman]

lets get some input from the members....

I want to hear about the best tank design for this purpose....

1.size and dimensions.... and why. lets say no more than 50g.

2. filtration

3. frag layout....

if you have pics of your grow out tanks.... lets see them.

Hi Ben - I was considering this years back and I spoke with Sally Joe at Garf.org

I havn't looked into this in a while, but last I saw they had a section on their site about their frag tanks -- might be worth your time to check it out. I think they had the frags on a rotory design (kinda like a water wheel on an old fashion Mill)

What type of frags? A mix of stuff or mainly SPS?

I want mainly sps, and maybe some LPS. maybe a 40 breeder might be a good idear....

I was looking at Calfo's book on coral prop. so the ideas are churning in the abyss in my head!

Alex sold his 90g prop system recently. You could probably get some ideas from this pic:
