I am planning to start a Red Sea Reefer 525xl build in the near future.
This will be my 3rd tank. My first two were plagued with Aiptasia. So I plan to go with dry rock and take it as slow as needed. Will also get some fish to help monitor that anyway like a copperband. Plan to do mostly soft coral... zoas, toadstool, mushrooms, leathers, ext. Plus bubble tips eventually.
I have never done a barebottom tank, but I have read they are easy to take care of. I like the look and was thinking of doing GSP bottom.
Planning on having 2 mp40 and one gyre. Which I can't decide if is too much for my soft corals.. Plan on doing a T5/LED hybrid fixture with 2 Kessil A360x.
Any tips or advice?
