Thanks Marie!! Yup I couldn't stand keeping my hands dry, so used up some store credit and started a 29 gallon LPS tank. Unfortunately, a...errr...ummm....upcoming change in marital status... (ya we'll call it that. )doesn't leave me any free funds to add coral for a while. Any frags would more than appreciated.

Marie your tank is amazing - you have to share your secrets with the rest of us bozos that are struggling with our SPS.........or am I the lone bozo here. Anyway share your secret with me!

[marie]

I have no secret, It's as much a mystery to me as it is to anybody .
The only thing I add to the tank is fish food, kalkwasser and RO top off water. I do occasional water changes, have activated carbon and a pathetic red sea berlin protien skimmer.

I have just about every pest algae you can get in there and an angel that trims my acros regularily. I was adding reef roids but I haven't in the last 2 months and haven't noticed any difference what so ever

What do you use for salt?
