Yeah I'm not too worried about the plates because I think with adequate lighting they don't need feed at all.

I was more wondering about the fish.. I was also thinking every 2nd day would be best with such a small tank.

What part of Calgary are you in?

I have learned that when things appear to good to be true. Well you know the rest.
But at least we can now make an informed decision not to vote for such a fraud.

ahah I never made such implications... jost a few posts on corals I would ideally want ahah

If I'm gonna be accused of fraud I should go get photoshop then I can "have" whatever corals I want

But someone has those corals... so it's not always too good to be true Just too good to be true for me

on the 10 i ran before this contest i had a pair of clowns with some coral and fed twice a day sparingly. i still do but this time around i having some major issues with cyno. the tank is SLOWLEY getting better but i should have let the tank cycle a more. at least i have been lucky enough to only lose one fish to carpet surfing.
