    aquaticlife G12

    My first guess is that the Phillips may not be the proper spectrum for a reef. While some may say that's ok for a FO tank, I would be concerned with...

    fruits yay or nay?

    Exactly. At least pellets and flakes are made from natural foods that come from the ocean. Grapes, bananas, etc. are not. :D

    Accidentally installed baffles wrong, issues?

    Hermit Anemones Safe for a tank???

    Would you be interested in a tube anemone? Seems to me they would be the perfect choice for a reef tank. Just place in moderate flow and they're...

    Love at first sight (Damsel/Anemone)
