Starter Corals

[Marcus K]

Thanks for all the great advice everyone. The Bumble Bees spend most of thier time on the rocks eating. One of them had a white cocoon like thing on its but for the longest time which I ignored for some reason. Yesterday I was trying a RedSea skimmer that was lent to me with the option to purchase if I liked it with poor results so I reinstalled my Seaclone and notice three of the white cocoon like things stuck to the inside of the skimmer tube.
As for the lava rock I have heard that it is not the best thing to have, possible high in silicates. I do plan on changing but Live Rock is 10bucks locally. I have not looked into J&L's base rock which might be worth while.
For water I do not use local water, I have been getting water from Safeway out of the Culligan machine. I have a RO/DI on wish list for next X-mass.

I will see if anyone wants my bumble bees, too bad they are not worth a Aqua C skimmer in trade.

Thanks again.

Marcus
