Hey everybody. My husband Paul and I (sharing) are excited to join and learn. We are not new to salt water tanks, however we are new to just doing a coral tank. We started a little JBJnana 12. It's pretty cool for a starter. Now I want bigger. Lol. In our tank we Xenia (lol) , Ricodia (2), RFA (3) , Firework clove (omg my fav), brain, frog spawn, bam bam Zoa, utter chaos, fire shrimp (1), snails (6 can be *****), and 3 crabs (they're jerks). Oh and green star polyp on back wall.

So I've been reading on coral amino. I started using 15 drops in the tank. Is that good, to much, or not enough. How do you figure out exactly what to use for the gallons you have?

I'm excited to see the growth but want to make sure I'm doing right?

By the way. I finally replaced the lights the nano came with and put an A I prime 16 and I'm following David saxby schedule. To much blue? What do y'all think. I love input. Lay it on me. You won't hurt my feelings. Hahaha.

Thanks everyone

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

I would say that 15 drops of Coral Aminos in a 12 gallon is a bit much and may lead to some high nutrient issues. Brightwell recommends starting at closer to 5 drops for a tank that size, and you can step it up over time if needed.
