    Oh, I don't know. We'll see with mine. I am going to supe up the skimming, build a good fuge and be reallllllly anal retentive about keeping the system in good maintenance. I am going to try for about 18 inches in a 75g reef and see what happens. All the fish will grow into their surroundings, so the system will not be shocked. Again, we'll see. At first sign of overstocking, I will pull the plug and back off on the inhabitants. My damsels are going to go. My LN hawk is going to go. I am introducing a wrasse and calling it good.
