u realize that with SPS, you should get Metal Halide lighting.
anything else, it will probably not be bright enough.
Especially in a deeper tank.
Again, if you want to try out the hobby without much expense, SPS is not the way to go.

BTW, i also have about 500 extra lbs of LR that I have from other tanks in a holding tank.
so if Cam doesn't work out, It is 6.00 a lb for 50 lbs or less.
Just so you know.
I am not trying to discourage you from the hobby, but you need to do some research on the net for sure for the requirements of the different corals.

hmm, I suppose I could try those basic corals, uhh soft white corals *forgets name*, but I want to know how to best suit SpS corals in a nano tank. LoL Originally I was gonna buy live rock from a store but that is uncured and I noticed that you can get it from people such as yourselves for way cheaper plus its cured plus I don't need that much.

I've been spending a while on research....most places try to advertise their product or they don't contain enough information. Although I have gotten some good information. "fish" on this place on the web has interesting nano tanks so i'm gonna check with him how he does it.-tks for the link

Hmm, what kind of growth you got on your coral/how porous is it *going for the best live rock filter system possible here* Would live sand be any good?
