Random maybe stupid question:
I put a small zoo colony on a piece of live rock (about 20 polyps) which has now grown to over a 100 polyps and takes up a few square inches of the live rock. I know live rock hosts bacteria to help in filtration and the more surface area the better. My question is this: If the zoos take over live rock, do I lose that area of filtration and should add more? I know I should not be complaining about coral growing, but in a 12g nano I want all the filtration I can get.
