My wife has a 75g that she is trying to make into a reef. I have been asked to make a sump/fuge for this. Is there a calculation to tell what size sump that this set up will need? I am wanting to stay on the small side because I don't have alot of faith in the floor that it is sitting on...

The guy obvoiusly had the tank running for a while to have algae growing. The fish have a certain amout of agression to them which is more than likely causing the problems. Believe it or not, african cichlids are the hardiest fish available with the exception of the SA and CA cichlids and...
