i have thought about it
what are the advantages of doing it aside from have a place to put coral in

You have to start somewhere
Looks like you're off to a good start
It makes me think about some of my first tanks.

Update

The PH has claimed another life. It took my new Six Line Wrasse within 3 hours. So no new fish till the PH is covered for good

On the other hand, new frags yesterday, hope to have pictures up by tomorrow.

Yet another Cyano outbreak this time its green slime instead of red, i know that its is photosynthetic but what other conditions are favorable to the cyano? i have found the source of the growth but i dont know how to go about destroying it at the source. Any ideas would be great.

phil_pl · Jun 25, 2009

New frags finally i have pictures the zoas are still unknown at this point so if you can id that would be cool

Armor of God

Green Bay Packers

Also have some other things i need help figuring out what they are in the first place
these hitchhikers came on the LR and just popped up once the tank settled in

and

pic number two looks like devils armor
pic number three looks like eagle eyes
not sure on the rest.
I wish I knew what to tell you about the green slime algae, maybe someone on here will know.

cyano seems to grow the best when phosphates are pressent and also in areas of low flow (detritous accumulation)
