  1. 4 x 39 watts of T5's over 38 gallon softy / zoa / LPS tank?

    What about clams under this sort of setup? Would a Derasa or Squamosa be alright? I measured everything up, and the light is 4" off the water, then there is about 14" of water to reach the sand bed. So, if I started with a 2" clam, the light would travel through 4" of air, and 12" of water to...

Let me repeat, I RIPPED IT in half, not cut. While I do NOT recommend this at all, both...
  5. zoa's growth

    I know that most zoos seem to like "dirty water" with slightly raised levels of nitrates and phosphates, but I wouldn't recommend that if you have other corals in the tank. You can feed them regularly, I feed mine cyclops all the time, and they love it. I also give them cut up bits of krill and...
