DHaut's Mutualism Microcosm

Alpha Aquaculture · Feb 28, 2010

Sweet red macro! What can you tell me about it?

Also I would like to know more about your mutualism goal... many times I'll find myself looking up words that I know the meaning of just in case I might be a lil off and I looked this one up so i'll share

mutualism- a symbiotic relationship in which each of the organisms benefit, duh, lol

I like the concept of the two tanks as well, really cool!

Wow, great set-up. I have a 5 g ADA cube I am considering lighting with the same LED as you used on your tank. It appears your SPS up there is pretty darn happy. What size is that top tank and is that the LED 20k or 12k version?

AC - posted in your macro thread. I think it's a sp. of halymenia called flame algae. Not positive.

As far as mutualisms go, I'm just fascinated by it. There's not much in there right now that is mutualistic, but i've got plans

Amici, I have the 20k version and it's one of the best purchases I've made for the tank. The SPS love it and the color is amazing. It would be so sweet over a 5g cube. My top tank is 9g and it's 12x12x13 roughly.
