Default Fluidized Beds On Reefs and FOWLRs- Waste of Time?
Hello,

I've heard two significant factors for fluidized beds. One pro, the other con.

The pro: A fluidized bed of a size relative to the system it is on can double the amount of fish capacity for that system.

The con: They are nothing but nitrate factories.

Just wondering what the general consensus on these things are, when it comes to Reefs and FOWLRs. I wish to simplify matters and am thinking of doing without a fluidized bed.

Thanx much,
