help help!

hi there every one, i just want to know how will i put in some soft corals and anenome so there's a place where my two clowns will play on. i have a friend who got his tank too and bought hos first three corals last saturday, and two of those died and we don't know if the other one's gonna live, the corals are taidstools, the one left is still shrunked up but it still got it's color and when we lightly touch it. i don't want to happen to this to my tank. any procedures that you can give me or sites where it teaches the how to's and don'ts? and even know if my corals will lie or are they still alive? please do help. here's my email add sire_andre@yahoo.com

 

how long have you been running the tank and what are you using for filtration?

and as for the site that can help... your on the best one IMO! so ask way!!!

also what lighting do you have on the tank?

 

leathers will also deflate at times to get rid of waste and then come back a few days later so it is possible they are just acclimating to your conditions.

 

sire andre- monkey asked the right questions , how long have you had your tank up? let us know about the setup- we need info so we can try to help!

 

why ty! bouraganes!


and how is the condition of the coral today?

 

my tank? ? ? ?

i started my tank (55 gal) last november 20, two weeks of cycling and after that o put in some live rocks (about 20 kilos), then another two weeks of cycling for the rocks. all the test are alright, then i introduced my fishes (2-domino damsel, 2 stripe damsel, 2 blue chromis) actually the fishes are free because a friend of mine gave it to me, and now it's my 79th day, and all fishes are fine i'm planning to have my corals.

what will be my steps? and how about the packaging or handling? how it should be dome because the lfs might be the one whose wrong?

-my lights, a toshiba bulb equivalent to a GE aqua rays, a uv lamp also (i haven't used this yet)
-a 25 gal sump (converted one of my aquariums, i used to put in a flowerhorn fish there)
-jebo skimmer


and about what happened to my friend's new coral? well, somtimes it swells just some part of it and we think it's still alive.

 

Not Sure What Your Lighting Is Exactly. If You Don't Have The Correct Lighting Requirements For Corals I Would Suggest You Get The Lights Prior To Introducing Corals.
