SPS upgrade

Additionally, I haven’t even picked out a tank yet. I know I would like to have a refugium and preferably a manifold for two reactors.

Mixed opinions on what do do here, I like having my reactor powered by its own pump, then I use my manifold for mixing in my sump. It means I am not debugging one pump for two different systems, but it is an additional piece of equipment.

I am thinking a 180 but might settle on a 125.

This is day 1 on planning so I am open to advice on how best to plan this.

I am on the fence about going bare bottom at the moment.

definitely recommend 180. 125 is too narrow...

for me, i started off everything fresh when i went sps dominated. i ended up having vermitde snails from some sps i got even though i cut off every plug.

I had a similar experience. I started with new rock and then I cut and dipped all the coral I transfered in. I still ended up with them but have 6 bumblebees in a 30g and they seem to keep the vermitids from reaching infestation population levels.
