Toying with the option of each..... Tank was just sitting in my garage and I'm bored. I would like to take all the frags out of my display but then again, i would like another fuge with different types of macros...

If its a frag tank it would likely be lit by a ai hydra, if its a fuge a ai nano.. It will be fed from my sump by a sicce 1 or .5, both of which I already have.

Both options would be cool imo, and both beneficial...

Which would you do?

A display fuge would be pretty cool.

I would say a low flow/ refugium area. I have a spare 15 High that is laying around that I am playing with the idea of converting into a Zoa and LPS tank that is plumbed into my existing system. That way I can get the high flow for my SPS, and have nothing sitting on the sand, and the wife is happy with her Zoa garden

Divide it in half with acrylic sheet and do both

Oh man... A display fuge would be sooo awesome..

If i added some sand, would it spark a cycle in my display?

I think flow and lighting would be a issue....

I would consider miracle mud. I used some in a HOB refugium for a while before I upgraded my tank due to a leak. It was amazing how much diversity was living in the mud and macros love it.
