    Aquarium snow?

    I have heard it is good. I think I kind of lean toward the kent zooplankton feed for corals though. They sell both on here if you want to look. You can try different kinds and see what kind of success you can get.

    Need Your Input All!!

    That is excellent........Usually that would run about 600 or so around where I live. But also witha canopy and stand?? Yeah that is pretty good. You can certainly use the filter they provide although you would have to get more but that standard lighting would only be okay for a fish only tank.

    No AirBubbles???

    The air bubbles can get into the fishes gills and harm them. That is not the way air exchange happens anyway. It happens on the surface of the water as it breaks like waves in the ocean.
