Artificial coral

[jackalcleo]

Any bros using fake coral instead of LR or live coral for your tank?

Couldn't see much of this type of tanks here.

Is it because of some other reasons which hinder hobbyist from doing that?

Because it look artificial inside the tank lol..

If use fake coral, you wont get the joy of witnessing your corals growing. Unless u want a fish only system but still want some 'presence' of corals, then fake ones are a solution lor

Agreed, I used to own a couple. Got rid of them because the colours are too artificial for my liking after a while.

Still considering whether to buy this from US or not. Just surprise locally even for FO setup don't see hobbyist using fake coral in this extend as shown in my attach link.

By the way even they guarantee using aquarium friendly paint do I still new to cure it?
