Does anyone have any advise on how large of a coral quarantine system would be good?

I do believe the biggest part of this will be the aesthetics of the system and most specifically of the Aquascapes.

Designing a quality aquascape and considering carefully what's going to look good next to one another is what differentiates this...

Once funds permit, a two is one and one is none philosophy will be applied to the business side of things. You only have something if you have two it. What will you do when the first one breaks which everything does in a reef tank.

If you take a bonsai tree approach to reef keeping, I would imaging you could come up with some beautiful coral shapes.

Coral also grows much faster so you could design a fun growth pattern through fragging and then change it the next time you frag the mother colony.

Ill check out living reef as well. WWC is in the middle of nowhere and I got caught in both Jax morning traffic and Orlando traffic. I'm currently sitting down to a nice breakfast trying to sweat out the poison of driving in Orlando.

Living Reef is located in the Waterford Lakes shopping district. So there are lots of food clothing and more options around that store.

I was left feeling cold by WWC, but then had the best customer service experience ever at Living Reef! I think I've found my go to LFS for fauna and flora.

I also thought the coral looked a little better.

I experimented a little with the concept with small rubber coated magnets I mounted the frag to it , just like a tree it grows towards the light lol
