Re: Inclinations of a no-filter media system.

I'm assuming you are speaking of Robert Stark of ESV in New York (pp 52~54 in Paletta's book). Most people want more than 4 small fish when they have a 120g tank but if that's what you want, more power to you. I do want to point out what he lists as a negative in the book...

While such a simple system can result in a beautiful reef tank, it is limited as far as the number of fish that can be maintained due to the lack of an export mechanism (skimmer, algae filter, etc.) and a gas exchange device (aeration, skimmer, wet/dry filter, or reverse/daylight algae filter). Reef aquarists who desire large fish populations should seriously consider adding one of these peripheral devices).
