I think I read that you only use carbon in your rear chambers. Is that all you use or do you use the sponge? Live rock rubble? I am trying to figure out what to fill my rear chambers with.

Just activated carbon. About a fistful in a lady's knee high stocking.
I didn't go with the bandwagon with the live rock rubble in the rear chamber because in the long run detritus collects back there and the only way to get it out would be to move the rubble which would be a PITA. I just vacuum it all out about every third or fourth water change.

Well, I have now entered the world of SPS. It turns out a buddy of mine whom I lift weights with occasionally is really
[hr]
into SPS and has a 10 gallon nano that is decked out with SPS, clams, zoanthids, LPS, and much more. He has 110 watts over his 10 gal. with 55 watts of 10,000 K power compact fluorescent and 55 watts of true actinic 03 power compact fluorescent with about 10 species of SPS and a maxima clam. He claims he never does water changes except when he sells frags he tops off with the same amount of saltwater he takes out, but he has a skimmer rated for a 65 gallon on a 10 gallon tank that hangs on to an Aquaclear 500 which hangs on to his tank.
This purple Pocillopora damicoris had most of its polyps out when I acclimated it last night around 14 hours ago, but it doesn't look so hot today. I don't think it will make it, but we'll see.
