I would go with (aragonite with bacteria in it). It is loaded with beneficial bacteria which will help you cycle your pool faster. For a tank I like to use 2-3 inches of substrate. For your pool i would go with that depth. To my knowledge it does not have to be replaced because the bacteria will cover any surface areas that are rough.

as a general rule 3-5 watts of intense light per gallon is a must.

How many gallons in your pool because I can figure out what your need. for example a 180 gallon tank would require 3 175 watt 5500k bulbs with 5-6 96 watt compact fluorescents, with this lighting all of your corals and other photosynthetic animals will thrive.

corals such as (mushroom coral, non-photosynthetic gorgonians, Tubestra corals, bubble coral, tree coral, brain coral)are corals that I do not work with but all of my texts still list them as photosynthetic stony corals that do not require feeding & are easy to propagate but rapidly deplete Ca levels in a system
