sumps ok for frags?

[deejeff442]

i have a 120 gallon 6 foot long sump/fuge set up on my 225 dt.
there is a 60 gallon part of the sump with lr rubble now but plenty of room for something to put in it.
could i use it for a frag tank?
if so should i go get a 250 watt mh for it?
i have a 2300 gph pump on the system and it is split between the 60 gallon part and the skimmer part.

I've seen it before in a much smaller space. Same idea though, the guy had a 4 bulb t-5 fixture over it.

i found this online.

so i guess you could. and why dont you go with a 150w or 175w MH for the section

i have a 90 gallon dt i am setting up soon i think i might turn it into a clam and frag tank.
is 2 175watt mh eneough light fot the clams?

i put a frag section in one of the tanks a my customers house and it works real well i would put a power head in there just for a good amount of circulation

also actually i would get more light than that i have 7 watts per gallon on all my frag tanks and it seems that they will grow faster and more colors wich is always good

also how far are the frags going to be away from the light
