in some yes, in others it can inhibit growth, it really depends on the species, and you having such a range, from GSP to pocillipora, im not sure you can please both 100%

again, no hard limit here as it depends on the intesity of the light you are trying to get in there, but i would go with at least 6-8 inches

Is there any benefit to me pulling water from my display ans putting it in my frag along with changeout water? Meaning is there anything that may be in my display due to the diverse life in there that would be a benefit to my frag tank?
i would say as long as your water is very dirty its would be fine, the thing is that you want to keep the water in both systems as similar as possible, so this method can help
