Have not.1. How many of you have or have had a frag area inside your sump?
The rationale (I don't get it, unless one is planning to sell frags commercially, as compared to a temporary 'spot'). It is my opinion that for long-term 'better growth' - that only corals of the same type should be near each other. My guess would be that (looking at some of the truthfully impressive) the corals will not grow significantly better than if they were glued to the rock from the start. Then there is the difficulty of maintaining the other equipment (which would be impossible in my sump.2. What should people consider when deciding whether or not to add a frag section to the sump?
A reefugium, yes. And the algae grown in their is beneficial algae, that absorbed nitrates and phosphates, so that there is no algae in the display tank.Don't most reefer use a sump with a strong grow light to grow algae so it grows there and not in the display?
That would be nice but what happens if you do not have a sump? I have a 125 gallon and have no room for a sump due to how the tank is set up and where it is sitting and I am not moving it LOL. It is a great idea though!Many people like the idea of having a frag tank or separate area where they can grow out frags but lack the space to be able to set up a frag tank. Good news is that if you have some space in your sump or under you then you have space for frags! Even if it's a small space to host frags it's better than having to have a frag rack inside your display tank. So let's talk about it today!

The PRO CLEAR brand sumps have a separate section for frags, it comes with the frag tray which I thought was cool.

Zen Reef makes great stuff. It's on the pricier side, but it's beautiful and will work on glass thicker than 1" if you get the extra strength magnets.Somewhat related to this topic -- does anyone have a suggestion for a magnetic frag rack that can handle 3/4" glass? I don't have it thick in my sump, but if I want to move it to my display...
