These guys are by far hard to beat and say if you give them a price they will match or beat. RO/DI Systems I have their 5 stage I paid $135.00 I...
Yes, you can try that. I went by how the flow affected my coral. After trying 3 different locations I ended up with my Nano Koralia right next to the...
My sentiments exactly. When I saw the tank my first thought was; "what in the world is a trigger doing in that tank?"
This one is strictly price for me. I love the Flame coloration but I love the Beautys' also. I came to believe the Beauty was a touch more hearty...
It is my contention that Xenia are in one of those hit and miss coral categories for exactly the reason mentioned over and over that; "They did well...
Mkizla, a bit of a precaution, if keeping all soft coral, the chemical warfare can get intense. The list ocean1 gave was a good list of which I keep...
Well, mine died while the rest of the tank flourished.
Well, seems the responses are kind of all over the place. The GPH is irrelevant here because we are not talking about that per se'. We are not...

I agree with oceanparadise about the feeding and I would also cut back on the flakes (phosphate producers). From your pics, the rock work is a bit...
For future reference; next time (hope not) but if it happens again, either take an algae scraper and "fan" over the affected coral or if possible,...
I put the "Nano" Koralia in my 14 gal. Biocube and it is perfect. A tank 14-30 gal. would require a #1 or even #2 depending on the placement.
With triggers you are kind of doomed to no inverts, however, you could try a Nassarius snail, the trigger may never find it. The trick is to get it...
Sparky, you are just too cool!!
Usually, to mimic the ocean lighting period, 12 total hours are used. There are two methods aquarists use the most: 1. 1st hour = actinic only. hours...
