I am upgrading from a 29 gallon tank to a 75 gallon reef.
At the moment I only have a few corals. They were just a test to see if I could keep them alive and healthy before upgrading.
The 75 should be ready really soon and since so many of you have the such beautiful, full looking reef tanks, I thought you would be the ones to ask
How to you go about selecting your coral to get a wide variety of texture, shape, size, etc. to get a full and colorful reef?
Do you mainly just pick your favorite corals?
Or do you choose by their placement requirements. Meaning do you try to get a certain amouth the should be placed on the bottom, then pick one the should be placed in the middle, and then the top. Trying to get a certain amout in each area?
Or something else entirely? How do you do it?
I would be very, very greatful for any ideas, suggestions, or comments, or even book recomendations that might help me out.
Thanks so much!
