Hey everyone! So im switching from running a display tank to just setting up a tank where i can have a few fish and grow coral since i've decided i enjoy coral more. The tank itself is a 75g acrylic with a 75g sump. Im going from my display system that was about 55g total system volume so this is a bit more to work with. Im planning on moving all of my coral over from my display but i have nuisances like bubble algae and aptasia and i really do not want to bring that over to the new system. Aptasia i may just frag around and quarantine to ensure they aren't coming over but for the bubble algae should i also quarantine after removing?

Question about filtration. Should I was planning on using brightwell aquatics bricks instead of live rock. What are the thoughts on this for this type of tank?
 
I've had the exact opposite experience actually. I just bought 3 of the marine pure bricks and they fall apart even just running it under water to remove the dust
 
I like sipporax a lot and it keeps itself fairly clean just sitting in the passive flow of my sump. Haven't had any issues with breakage.
