    Desjardini Sailfin Tang

    Badkharma- do you speak from experience????.......i think anyone trying to keep an sps dominate tank should consitrate on keeping the sps as colorful as possible........having to feed a 12" Sailfin is going to produce a ton of phosphate....and on top of it the sailfin is going to release a ton...

    What kind of Foods do you feed your corals?

    i think most ppl underestimate how much corals need food...even with sps about 10-25% of there diet is food......i feed mine a live rotifer culture and also phyto (phyto for the leather and clams, and to feed the rotifer culture) Brad

    Desjardini Sailfin Tang

    no experience with them but i assume they would.......i wouldn't but one in a sps reef (inles over 200g) cause of the waste issue though.....but thats only if you love your sps color more then the tang Brad

    Starting over new

    you do need max light.......anenomes need more light than clams and just as much as sps do.......bubble corals and anenomes are found on dif. parts of the reef ( anenome is higher up)...so they need completely dif lighting.....with 2 X 65 DAYLIGHT BULBS (not actinic) you might be able to keep...

    Zoos and sea cuke

    no it won't bother him at all......i don't think zoos can sting inles a coral is touching it...and it shouldn't release compounds to try and kill the cuke......i am not sure i would just watch them closely...you will see signs if either are not doing well Brad

    Starting over new

    that lighting is absolutely no where near the amount of light you need ofr that anenome....if you are going to listen get rid of the anenome....getting 65w of actinic is going to do nothing actinic lights hardly have any par ............your going to have to use the money for the 125 to pay for...
