Yup, you'll need less frags that you would normally buy. The downside is the tank looks empty for 6 months. Then you think, "oh, I have room for 1 more" and next thing you know, 2" frags are killing each other

lol. That was my whole issue. I look at my tank now with coral placed about 3" apart and think its kinda empty looking. Most of my growth has just been encrusting. Only room for a few more corals (10 or less Depending on the frag size I am guessing). Going to have to get creative with space.

Just have patience. If you over stock, you have to decide which ones to get rid of one day, and nobody ever wants to get rid of nice colonies.

We all get to that point one time or another. Don't worry Joe, you have plenty of space....

Do not. I mean absolutely do not. Take any stocking advice from Rich(or Wayne, Peter, Warren, etc)

I am pretty sure they just like buying pretty new things. Actually putting it somewhere never really comes to mind. Could be worse things.
