Ian,
You have pointed out the one thing that is got me a little stumped. The concept of doing a project around his tank is exciting but what question should we be trying to answer. The one I am thinking of is "can a reef be created from only aquacultured corals". Since we are restarting from scratch it won't be hard to do a proof of concept with his pico. If we proved the concept in the pico we could extrapolate this to the real world.

My Nano Reef Contest entry will be populated completely with aquacultured corals and fish, so it will be a similar idea.

Well we have talked it over and we think that our question will be
"Can aquacultured corals restore a reef" My son's astute hypothysis thanks to years of watching my tanks and his is that yes they can but we will be proving this conceptually with his pico reef. I wan't to get it set up this weekend and take some base line pictures and then stock it as much as I can over the next 2 weeks. Then we can chart the progress over the next few months and observe the coral growth. I know that really SPS corals would be really what rebuilds a reef but the principle will be the same. Anyone in edmonton care to donate a frag or 2
