    Thanks! They max out at around 8inches, and aren't active swimmers so a 55 is a good minimum size tank.

    Switch from IO to Reef Crystals?

    I've added a number of SPS corals to my tank. I have been using IO salt for 2 yrs and was wondering if I should switch to RC to support the SPS? I don't supplement at all, and perform bi weekly w/c's. Will I get better growth with the added Calcium/Mag...?
