I'd add more rock or way less bio load. If it were mine I'd only have egg crate in the front half of the tank with rocks along the back and I'd raise it up of the sand bed a few inches.

Ok. I'll add a few pounds and raise it! I bought a huge egg crate.

That's what I was getting at yesterday. The cleaner the better. I would probably just have a cuc or one small fish. I also think rubble rock under the egg create is better than sand. You will still have the keep good flow on the sb so it doesn't cause toxic conditions. So m2c no sand

So I was looking at frags for sale online. Xenia is expensive! I might start fragging and selling that as well as zoas

Xenia isn't expensive, it also won't sell quick because it's labeled as a weed in a lot tanks.

Ah. I was seeing frags going for like $15-20!

So I'm thinking zoas and a few mushrooms here and there

15-20 isn't expensive at all.
Go into the high end market of zoas you can pay as much as $3,000 a polyp.

Go to Sexy Corals.

That wave point I think would be great for softies. Only sucky part is that it doesn't have on and off switch. Or at least mine didn't

Sexy corals pricing is ridiculous...I wouldn't buy a frag from there even if the prices were cut in half lol

How do you see the prices?

[BigRedsReefs10]

I know, I couldn't even find them, which was a little scary

I agree. I love it. Great build quality. It definitely could use a switch

There are switches which have a plug, and then about a 5-7' cord coming out of the same spot with an on off switch works like a charm.

All this frag tank talk makes me sad because about 2 years ago I was at a yard sale and the guy had a 2' x 2' x 1' tank and he didn't know what it was for and I certainly didn't know at the time, for $20, or what I wanted to offer for it Missed opportunity...

Nice I get to see what you will be doing and learn some more!
