    Mangroves

    Thanks for the link. You can trim mangrove braches/leaves and roots. If you do that, the tree will have more of a bush appearance. I personally have never done this, but have seen pictures on other forums about it.

    Mangroves

    What kind of lighting do you have exactly? (kelvin rating and wattage) Also, if you had some pics of the mangroves that would help as well.

    Thanks. When I get my 75g set-up I will be incorporating the plants into that tank as display as well, yet will also be a reef. I am not sure how it will look, but I hope it looks good.

    He does pick on coral, but only my brain coral and occasionally some polyps. Tomorrow is not good as I work everyday from 6am-6pm. I will be breaking down my 55 and setting up a 75 within the next 2 weeks. When I take all the LR out of the 55 it will be much easier to get the angel out. I will...

    Mangroves

    Ahhhh, very nice to have a fellow reefer nearby. What stores do you go to, or do you order online? I have been to allquatics once or twice and they have some good stuff there, but try to get tank raised and non-wild caught critters from onlince vendors.

    Mangroves

    Yeah, I figured it was the plant nutrients in the water (fish waste). I have also heard about the roots growing downward, keeping the tree supported out of the water, but wasnt sure if I wanted that look, and after seeing some pics of others tanks who have that look going, am glad I didnt go...

    Hyenas are just about the coolest animals out there. Especially the spotted hyena, aka laughing hyena. If I had a license to keep these animals and a large enough area, I would do it in a heartbeat.

    Mangroves

    Anyone else have any mangroves? I have had my mangroves for about 5 months or so and about 2 months ago, decided to try to plant one in some topsoil in a bucket, then fill the bucket up with saltwater. I want to see how large I can get a mangrove while keeping the roots condensed inside of the...
