HI, also need some advice. Planning to "graduate" from planted tanks to a 36"x22"x24" setup for FOWLR. wld like to add some "color" to the live rocks and was wondering for above kind of set-up (thinking 2 x 24/28W PL - 1 daylight 10kk and 1 actinic), what kind of soft coral I can get that would thrive in such conditions. Don't want to get into the cost of MH & chiller at this point in time. Wld buttons and mushrooms work? What would be the additives required? Really apprec any advice that u can give...many tks!

Sorry, to add, would tube worms also survive under these conditions?

Ta!

siput, u are not going to graduate from fish only tank. FO tank ppl too know some basics but u still not. Better do some readings around more. Be patience and u will find happier endings.

Ben, many thanks. Will take advice and start of with fish only first. Was a bit apprehensive after going through many threads over thse last couple of weeks anyway.

Hi Siput.

Why don't you get into research mode first.

There's really quite ALOT to learn about the marine ecosystem and what's needed to keep it in good condition for the long term health of your livestock.

Don't start until you learn ALL you can. The less mistakes you make at the beginning, the better!

Start off with reading the pinned up threads in the New to the Hobby Forum.

Best of luck,

AT

AT, thanks! I hate it when fish die because of lack of knowledge, seeing that they are at our mercy, so what u and Ben say makes sense...
