It depends on many things, such as are you going to keep fish in it as well, and if so how many?
How are you going to manage the chemistry? More automation is convenient, but also provides more points of potential failure.
I plan to tie the frag tank into a common sump with a display tank in my new build. This is more for convenience than anything else (one water change & one controller).
If you are only going to keep corals in the frag tank, that will simplify the upkeep. Just because fish & food introduce nutrients that must ultimately be dealt with.
