Do frags/corals pose a big bio load on a tank?

[charlieborg]

I have several frags I have added recently. I was wondering if they pose a big load on the system?

Ooh, depends which corals. Most corals do add to bioload, but it's negligible amounts. Some produce more than others, but it's typically safe to assume corals aren't adding much to your bioload.

Agreed.

Wondering this myself as I have had a coral only tank for over 2 months now.
Definitely less detritus hanging out on the sand bed!
