They can be hit and miss. Most people have good luck with them, but there are some that will cause problems. I would get rid of the fish personally...
I would leave it clear. You will want to see if there is a problem, and it's pretty cheap to replace once in awhile.
As long as you can stack it to allow the amount of swimming room and coral growth room, than it's not too much.
You should be fine if you don't overstock. I agree more with the rule 1" per 5 gallons, because I would rather be on the safe side. When you are...
Simple is better when it comes to an ATO. I like the design of the Eshopps model you linked. That one doesn't even need a pump. It is a gravity feed...
It's possible that they are getting too much light. I've had a few species that didn't want to open up after being added to my tank. I finally moved...
There's never any guarantee that it will be the turning point, but it certainly should at least help. Cyano is bacterial, so you may want to consider...

I run one while actinics are off. My return chamber is only about 5 gallons of my 20 long and I think the pump does about 250 gph. It keeps the...

Very cool idea.
Fermentation produces CO2 :o
I like Rio pumps. Mine has been running for years and they are dead silent. As for size, I would look for something between 800 and 1000 gph.
Privately owned? That's insane!
He's been crazy busy lately, so I'll give you what I've seen that's done. Coral tanks are all built and being plumbed into sumps. From the looks of...
