    Live Rock

    Just a thought, but if this tank has only been running fro two weeks, test water often and maybe WC with RO water will keep the Tang and Clown from becoming too stressed.

    Lumens or WPG?

    I am just trying to figure out what light measurement is good. Found a great thread using LP/SA. Lumens x par/sguare feet of tank. It seems wpg has very little meaning, but is still used to talk about how much light a tank has. I like the LP/SA it makes sense.
