CORRECTION: Not nessecerily true, depending on tank consumption, suppimenting calc and other elements are required. Sometimes consumption is so great...
Unfortunately, many of our first coral died so you may not get many replies.
Hey Fuzz, what do you mean; "until a bad batch of instant ocean crashed it ". How can you be sure it was the salt itself and not some other...
Interesting answers here. No ne seems to remember that a lot of us have magnets in the tank via Koralia power heads and glass cleaners. I realize...
You may be a little ahead of yourself. Before you endeavor to keep coral, of any kind, you have to have ample lighting as mentioned. Now, most "soft"...
You may not like this answer. I would not add everything to the a 38 gal. Talk about stressing the inhabitants! The better idea would be to remove...

First pic is shortly after flipping my old 55 gal to this one with built in over flow and sump. [IMG] Second here is little over a year later;...
I agree totally with this post. You should never BOMBARD your tank with new lighting. Turning off some of the bulbs (or not installing) and gradually...
Well, I am always open to learning. I am the first to say "I am wrong" when it is proven. Although you gave me no scientific rebuttal, I decided to...
