    WTB: Tunze wavebox

    I believe if you look up jamie814...he posted that he has a 210 Gallon Complete Reef Ready Setup, in the classifieds, and the wavebox was an item that he hasn't sold yet, as of yesterday.

    Acclimate corals? I start them at the bottom then move them upward? Now, I've lost probably the easiest coral of all...xenia. What the heck is going on?? I guess that would be acclimating them? The temperature is constant 77-78 degrees. The tank is 110 gal. I just lost my PB tang this...
