Some say i you over power it with light gradually and not shock it to have it bleach then it will puff up its tips- but thats only what i read im not sure- i wish i knew cause i want a rbta but would only be able to keep it if the tips were short and not able to sting my sps.
i have the brown plating on in my refugium - i like that one but for some reason my tang likes to eat it when it goes into the top tank. The encrusting one with white fuzzes on it will take over your rock very quickly. try going to a fish store that sells emerald crabs and see if they can place...

ok the salinity is bassicly the only thing you can control when getting saltwater from places- like if fishtales hasnt repalces there ro membranes for 3 years id probably wanna spend the money and go to trop.
