Sponges are easy just don’t expose them to air and feed the tank some phytoplankton

My other sponges do well. I might try it.

The real corals are detracting from the fake ones... No seriously...the fake ones stick out like a sore thumb next to the real ones... better to pull all the real ones out now.

Gotta say, whatever you like in your tank looks awesome to me. Not trying to be the great mediator, but I have had tens of tanks (including the bubble scuba diver in the 70s) and I have loved them all.

BTW, I have seen fake corals that look way better than pumps, heaters and, worst of all, large frag racks.

The deep sea diver that had bubbles coming from his helmet and treasure chest that filled with air until the lid flew open and released a giant bubble are what got me hooked on aquariums when I was a just a kid. I could have cared less about the fish.. lol

My favorite is the skull in the barrel or the diver fighting the octopus.

I used to do just that in the 80’s all the time with the white dead coral skeletons I used for decorating. Soak for 2 hours and rinse. Weird or lucky part was never had a problem. But that was FO back then.

why stop there... just go freshwater and get glofish and some neon colored gravel to complete the look!

OOhhh! Nooooo! My FW tank is this (and dumbo guppies and cardinal tetras) and it is gorgeous all lit up.

If you ever watch tanked show on animal planet. That’s how most of their setups look like. To each it’s only, but for me it’s a no...

I heard they’re kicking you off the forum

Lol this thread has me in stitches. Is adding decorations the equivalent of switching to the dark side of reefing?
