theres conflicting information on wetwebmedia about this coral but it seems that it should be kept with under a shelf away from light and have good flow but not direct flow. i think what you are doing is just fine if i do say so..

it sounds healthy. the Chili coral is a nocturnal feeder and prefers to hang upside down. sometimes mine does that as well. I currently have had it for a couple months and he is branching out. the best place would be under a dark shelf. most people say that if you just ignore them they will grow...

i haven't seen any ill effects posted on any forums really. but who could tell any other way? you can't see whats going on in the tank at night really. I don't think that the Par/Lumen how ever you want to measure it is great enough in a single unfocused led or group of leds. Leds that they are...

When the Lights are on for Photosynthetic corals and plants, they are getting food and storing it while they are "awake". Night time, (lights out) is said to be there growth mode where they will take the energy that was gathered during the day and use it to grow.A Coral or plant is alot like a...

Re: Here's my 120 wow ... i'[m glad the only problem i have had was operator error.. as i forgot to top off the 220 and then had the GF stick the hose in it to top it off.. well she left the hose on and overflowed both tanks.. lmao good thing its in the basement

South Jersey.. Exit 7 off I-295 or Exit 1 off the NJ Turnpike

I would think that it is more water quality problems then the lighting.. I have a brand new Nova Extreme with 10K and Pure Actinic and have a green algae and red cyano out break, a 5 gal water change had halted it in it's tracks. Now it's started to creep back so something is different in my...

Re: Here's my 120 wow you weren't kidding about making room in that closet..

sweet, great excuse to kill that bottle of jack and use it for an overflow

good morning and Merry Christmas!

Or if it's big enough just drill the holes and use the pump thats on it.. then if the power is out both return and to sump pump will stop, so no flow and both will restart without your intervention.. I have an emperor 400b tho like 500+gph

i did not notice that there were eggs since the peps always are hiding anyways.. but the tank turned a milky white that day and then by chance i checked the tank and there they were.. I wish i could raise them at the moment but dont have the time.. and yes they are suppose to be easier the...

i have evap from the tank but no moisture problems.. But i also have Hydronic base boards from my boiler so i get nice heat that isn't dry :) I did try using the glass lids but they were all gunked up and i still did manage to burn my SPS rock that i had from the beginning. oops..

I WISH i could get a picture but after playing some COD a little late i decided to see if the clowns had found the sabae.. Much to my surprise and unknowing the peppermints must have laid eggs, they hatched tonight.. I shined the flashlight into the tank and saw hundreds of Tiny clear shrimps...

we once again have a new addition, this time a "White" Sabae Anemone or heteractis crispa A host for the True Percula Clownfish. this was petco :-\ Purchase but it is a Nice 7" or so disc plenty big enough to make both clowns invisible. I saw one of them swimming under it and through the...

i say its no different than fragging corals, do you think that they felt it? how about anemone's? your doing nothing different than would happen in the wild. the only "role" you are playing is providing something that they would have had to hunt on their own.

no even he one smaller than him is still there as is the one with some kind of fungus.. i got some mardel anti fungal to QT it tonight.. I have a pair of True Percs and a watchman Goby.. I didn't notice the other chomis picking on him.. I dunno

i spoke too soon missing a chromis now down to three.. Hmm..

nice.. we have a school of 4 in the 55g and i plan to add a decent size school to the big tank and some other type of schooling fish.. they seem more natural in pairs or groups

'll have to pony up and buy a big one then.. the little one works but i have to be easy with it.. Thanks!
