Is my tank ready for corals?

[Jilly92]

It's not a frag tank it's a frag cutting tank and coral qt for new pieces before they're put in dt or frag tank or grow out tank

Ahh. How long have you had that many? I had 5 as well. Just sold one a couple weeks ago. I do freshwater and saltwater and its all too much lol

In order not to cross contaminate I dont want nudis or redbugs munching on my high end sps or to bring in something unwanted that way it gives me time to test each piece and observe under microscope closely before it moves on

The videos were black. I would like to watch those if you have a link. That sounds interesting, I have an amscope microscope and have been wondering what else I can put under it besides algae, copepods and worms haha

It's for observation really to see if there are any irregularities or lesions in tissue
Inspecting the piece with a more finite view
