    Good choice. I'm pretty sure your diamond goby is going to enjoy this over the crushed coral.
    If you do need the crushed coral as a pH buffer, couldnt you just have it in your sump or fuge?

    Yes I will have a 10 gallon fuge so I can use the crushed coral. I got 70lbs total, 40lbs live and 30lbs base.

    Thanks for everyone's help.

    sounds good

    also everyone has said crushed coral leads to high nitrates because of the dead spots but if you just use a gravel vac shouldn't it kill the problem?
