I do not have an experience with them but I've read good reviews on "real reef rocks", you can get them on liveaquaria. it's a man made rocks thats been cultured to have all the goodies you would want from live rock without all the pest involved. Although, i still think dry rock is the best bang...
Thanks for all the replies guys, i will make a batch of new water and try out a new aquascape within this month. I will probably make a tale of the tank afterwards.

Im thinking about re-aquascaping my already established 90 gallon. I will not be adding any new rock or removing, I just want to move things around. I feel like the rock work can be better. Is there anything I should look out for? I went through a mini-cycle a couple weeks back when I changed my...

how many power heads do you have? two? three? If only two, I would say mid back, facing opposite corners it will cause turbulence in the center of the tank which will create some random flow. I would also suggest pointing your output from your return to the surface to cause agitation. If you...
I've had a yellow tang in a 45 gallon for about a year till I upgraded to a 90. The yellow tang was pretty happy in my opinion. awesome algae eaters, well mine at least. :D
do you have another kit lying around? test it with that and compare. I've never had an issue with my PHOS checker or ALK checker. Calcium on the other hand is a little buggy but I have a salifert kit incase I'm not comfortable with the reading or to just compare. Also when I first started with...
Update 3 **
Tank has stabilized and all the zoas and lps I have are recovering. I eventually lost all my SPS corals except some monti caps which I hope they can recover. I only have one SPS frag and it is the red planet I received when the tank was stabilizing, hopefully that can make it. I...
sorry to hear that, I had a semi tank crash myself a week back. not the best feeling in the world, i eventually lost all my sps corals. good luck with the 180 build!
