Corals to Cover Bare Bottom

[bv_reefer]

what lighting are you gonna be using? just wondering what others are using for a coral crammed tank..

[Jaws]

14K 400W MH's. Two of them.

oh ok i'm using 1x400 watt 20k interested to see what growth levels you get from the softies, as mine hate the high light

Not in my tank...but I've seen others where the bare bottom is covered with green star polyps or zoos.

I find that it interesting, as you run out of space for various items, the "barebottom" gets filled up pretty darn fast. Currently I have a ricordea rock, 4 clams, a birdsnest colony, a pavona colony and a gorgonian. Granted there is a wee bit of space left but I think with a bit of effort I'll have that filled up soon

I think GSP would look amazing covering the bottom of a tank....especially with a wavemaker. Oooooooh.

really it's taking me while to cover my tank, thats why i'm going with all the monster colonys as they take up a fair amount of space, but then again it looks stunning when finished, if theres such thing as ''finished'' stocking sps lol

Found when first setup the BB tank if I tried to place anything on the bottom would just slide around. Once the coralline started things stuck better.

For a GSP bottomed tank look here no sure if started BB though
