How come you can't grow macro?

I remember reading that you should go 2" of sand or less or 6" or more??

So many different ways to do everything with little certainties. lol

Well I took all the sand out. Past the first 3" it looked clean, like it was new.
I added 7 gallons of water volume, and about 30 lbs of live rock. I think I will be better off now.

Just need to figure out a light to use for growing frags now. The frags will be shallow, so don't think I'll need much light.
