    Light and Corals

    i am trying to expand my coral addiction. my lighting is a Nova Extreme T5, 4 bulb. i have some LPS's, but really am wanting to get into the SPS game. do you guys think that the T5 is going to be enough lighting for maybe some Acropora or something like it??

    I think I got swindled....

    i've been in a LFS that made their own base rock out of some sort of concrete or something. they make it look cool, but just can't imagine its good for your tank
