    New with problems

    Are you using some kind of carbon in any of your filters? Carbon can contain phosphate. I have also heard that certain foods such as frozen shrimp can contain them also. You can get whats called phosphate sponge and put it in a high flow area of tank and that will lower it, but you really need...

    Added first Coral

    Thanks Lisa. Ive really taken my time. my tank has been set up for over two years, and fish only just wasn't doing it for me anymore. I think my tank has really matured well though.

    Added first Coral

    My tank was fish only for about two years, and I just added my first coral which is a toadstool leather. I guess I'm going to be broke from here on out.

    anyone know what this is on my fish?

    Was the Chem-Marine a copper based product? You need to get the fish out of your main tank and treat him in a QT. You never want to use copper in your display tank, it will absorb in you live rock and it's almost impossible to get rid of. It will also kill any inverts in the tank.

    I paid $210 shipped for a coralife but you can get other models like jebo's odyssea with the same setup (4x65 with lunar light) for about $150 shipped.

    the pic is with both daylight and actinic lights on. this is an older light so it only has one switch so i can't run one or the other by themselves.
