  1. No, i wouldn't risk it with the corals.

    I would definitely look at getting more snails than that. Hermits can be cool but don't do the job that snails do. Also peppermint shrimp is not CUC.

    Alrighty the 750 is out and the 260 is back in. The clowns seem to like it better.

    Also, now that the diatoms are gone I've moved on to the next stage, green algae.:0

    Alright I've got a few things....

    1. I brought the media basket back. I really need the mechanical filtration. How often should I change filter floss?

    2. My nitrates are still at 10:/ hopefully now with the chaeto and direct flow through the purigen it will go down.

    3. If I can get my nitrates down the plan is to get the 10000k bulb and a frag or two in about a week. Would a torch or frogspawn be a good idea?

    :)

    Sweet. Do you think Lps is a good idea in a two week old tank?

    I would start with a softie.. It's a little risky but if you have low trates and high light, you'll be good.

    Cool, if my trates are 0 then I'll get one. If not just a softie.
