There must be some suppliers that are more inclined to have frags that are not directly from the ocean?
That's a good list to start with. Thanks Mr Bill. And I assume that the majority of corals are propagated from captive mother colonies so most every...
Careful which LED's you get. You'll need enough light for your tank. That may cost more than floods. But you'll save money down the line on...
Thanks for bringing up this topic Mr Bill. I'm deciding how to approach stocking my upcoming 125 and i'd like to make my purchases from those...

My wife wanted a salt water aquarium for years. So, about a year ago she bought me a tank for my birthday.

Following.
I think it should be Curve.
Just have to say Michael, you are doing the right thing asking as many questions up front as you can. You can easily save money and frustration doing...
