icliao Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 My 3 ft reef just slightly over one month old. I am still scared of putting in expensive corals. The SPS were given by LFS as they are all browned out. Some of them are starting to show their previous color as the deep green/brown stag turning blue. I used Bio Sphere, Algone and RowaPhos to keep nitrogen cycle and nutrients in check. An auto top up is hooked up with a Deltec Kalk stirrer to maintain water stability. Coral is supplemented with amino acid and marine snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
