Post Caulerpa Farm

I would like to set up a Caulerpa farm tank...I have a 30 gal long tank.. I was thinking of using a DSB, a few pieces of LR from my main tank. For lighting going with 2 LOA 9266s with some actinic supp...I was even thinking of putting a few damsels in. For a sump use a rubbermaid container.. The question I have is.. How much flow should I have? And what other suggestions do yall have?

My thought is it doesnt matter. The stuff will grow like a weed. I made the mistake of putting some in the corner of my 55 and wow did this stuff take off every where.

I believe most will say, low flow. However, I'm running 1000gph and 1300gph thru 2 of my refugiums and my caulerpa grows so fast and so thick I pull the stuff out by the handful weekly! Very good nitrate exporters that stuff! JMO
