Blind leading the blind...

I now have frogspawn (thanks jeb102385), mushrooms (thanks HAW), zoas (thanks HAW), and a red monti cap coral (thanks jeb102385). We'll see how things go. I had an interesting conversation about sustainability this evening.

Wow, this thread is making me want to get back into saltwater. Bravo Tim, bravo...

[armthehomeless]

Is 4 OK?

[Darbex]

Oh remember to dial it back a couple of bulbs to make sure they dont cook the corals after they get used to the light then you can turn on more bulbs.

[armthehomeless]

Six

Blue+ is nice, Purple+ is interesting. I was told to get a super actinic and a purple + for white bulbs, and use blue+ for the other 4 bulbs. How many bulbs is your fixture?

[armthehomeless]

Yes. Purple, blue, and ???. All ATI.

[Darbex]

Did you get the new bulbs yet?

[armthehomeless]

does that door open towards the tank? make sure theres a stopper if it does -_-

It does... and there is. :)

Thanks for looking out for me.

[Darbex]

yeah you only need to dip once just follow the instructions on the bottle. I think coral rx kills more than seachems but its also less forgiving.

[armthehomeless]

So just one dip?

[Darbex]

Oh and yes dip dip dip. Do not put anything in your tank without a bath in coral rx or seachems version. Those are the two I trust. And do a check for aiptasia or majano as well you may not be able to catch them every time but its worth a check.
