Default Filtration question

I'm just curious if anyone has successfully run a reef with a cannister
filter (Fluval) and undergravel?

I ran a great fish only setup this way and have attempted a reef with the
ecosystem. The ecosystem stabilized for about 6 months then it just went
way out of whack. I suddenly had a die off of caulerpa which caused a hair
outbreak. Never got rid of hair no matter how many water changes I did. I
even replaced my MH bulbs and CF tubes. No help. Bottom line, not
impressed so I'm thinking about going back to basics when I move next month.

Thanks.
