Frag tank or display?

[Cubbies]

Ok so I've been thinking of setting up a 10g frag tank. I love buying frags and coral and also getting donated coral Now I know people say that in a 10 it is very hard to keep parameters stable and stuff like that and that kind of worries me. I have the lighting and the pumps needed, as a matter of fact I have the tank as well. I want to start up the 10 or my other option is getting a magnetic frag rack to just put on my display. What do you guys think? any advice is appreciated and please comment away.

I'm actually planning to due the same thing myself.
Thinking I would due 1 or 2 gal. WC every week.
Add supplements daily for a healthy reef environment and see what I can learn.
Should be fun.

I personally don't like the look of a frag rack in my display. Frags i think should be in a frag tank till there big enough to call displayable. I have a 24x24x8 frag tank that i use for the small stuff till there grown out and i like the look of the different frags in that tank as there own display!

nah just get some egg crate and make a 10g frag rack. as long as you keep the thing high quality water, you'll be fine. i never liked looking at "perminant" racks in peoples setups, it looks cheapish.

Yea I think I'm going to go with the 10. Hey I gotta start somewhere. I'm very excited! This will be my first frag tank!
