which rockscape is nicer? the second one was taken while my fish was alive.any comments?should i redecorate the tank. im using 3x14 watts aquazonic bulbs can i keep an acropora.

The third rock rocks is nice, no need to redecorate unless u wan to add a few more branching liverocks to increase the height a bit.

Your tank v small, not advisable to go into SPS (acro included), u may hav problem maintaining water stability.

Why not keep some more zoos and a few soft corals and those easier LPS? And slowly restock w nano fishes and inverts that tank will look great in time.

brains can be found at almost every shop i can think of but their prices varies. same goes for bubbles. both are easy to keep and can be considered as beginner corals.

you might want to reconsider sps as they are more demanding in terms of husbandry. a good skimmer is a must and low nitrates and phosphates level if you want to retain their colours. they do not come cheap either and demand alot of light. your 3x14w may not be enough. your best bet is to keep it as close to the light as possible

Your zoos are too big ! wanna exchange colony? i got small one i think about half the size of ur current colony. :rolleyes:

try keeping monti or birdnest first, if they survive for 2 weeks then maybe try acro.

is it nicer. i can put more corals with this arrangement

Now it is bare, so u won't be able to see how nice it is. Put corals on the rocks and sand bed and you will know how nice it is and whether you need to rearrange your rocks.
