    Whites before and after blues? That seems backward to most alls lighting schedule?..

    Storing mixed water?

    To buy or not to buy.

    With the coral growth you've got going on in there, you won't be seeing the rocks much longer. I'm amazed at the PE- I've never seen that much...

    Let's talk about the invasive lionfish in the Atlantic.
