Within the last month i've started to test out corals and my ability to keep them
75 gallon tank
260 watts pc lights 2 10000 k's and 2 atinnics
0 on amm and nitite
10 or less on trate seems in between the colors
sal 1.026
ph 8.4
corals were purchased at LFS home for unwanted corals 15 dollars a piece cleancing them out
1 rock with large mushroom
1 rock with 7-8 small to medium mushrooms
1 30+ colony of brown zoos with green in center
1 2 headed frogspawn rather large head for it i think
been in tank for about a month now
question i have is do i need to be dosing anything in this tank to keep these corals
I have been operating under the dont add chemicals to the tank and just keep up on water changes idea 5-10 gallons weekly. but a friend says i need to be adding chemicals weekly I dont want to do this wrong. should i be adding things or stay as is. i was pretty confident in my research i was doing it right but now i find my self questioning.
i do throw the frogspawn a little food from time to time
everythign looks great except a couple of zoos appear white in the center. was planning a another thread about that with picture but im out of time tonight and wanted to at least get this on.
Sorry for the long post thanks in advance
forgot to mention tank was set up as a 45gallon in april and everything moved into a 75 gallon in january. no deaths or spike in readings after the move so after waiting a month i added corals
