Refugium or just a sump with live rock
What is better for a reef. I have a 75 gallon with fuge now but I wanna upgrade to at least a 150. I've seen some people with just sump with live rock and seem to do great.

You can stock it up with lots of cheato algae which will help host pods but just realize this takes a little time... (years sometimes to truly develop to the level needed) A good sump with LR or matrix rock works for most reef tanks not having these requirements though.. Just all depends how much time and $$$$ you want to spend on it... |

Fuge is the answer for me then. Do you think 75 gallon is ok for 150-200 gallon

Yes a 75 standard would be fine... I had a nice 55 long under a 125 and it was perfect... the more you can have working underneath the better you will be... you can also keep some emeralds..
