Some do and some do not, what types of corals do you want for your tank? what are you looking for? My faves are Zoo's, Ricordia's, and Frogspawn! Those are at the top of my list! All needing something diffrent in terms of lighting and flow! Zoo's like high lighting with a moderate flow, Ricordia do fine in lower lighting with a low flow, and Frog spawn like in medium lighting and medium flow! What types are you looking at?

by product of nitrite, that is what is made to get rid of the nitrite. But weekly water changes will get rid of those levels for ya!!!! Sounds good!!!!

the orange one, with the blue around the edges! That is the ricordia! When I draw on pix like that I feel like I should be saying stuff like "Boom" (John Madden)
