  1. Inverts and bio-load?

    Most of those animals are second hand feeders, meanig that they need something else to eat first and then excrete or shed some of that stuff they ate. Could run into problems feeding that many critters. Maybe just a few. gobi 1
  2. Photoperiod

  6. Sea Chem Aditives

    Reef Man, I must also agree with the Seachem products above. I have used these for a couple of years now and like them very much. The results are predictable and accurate. I have a 40 gallon I dose a level teaspoon of each alternating back and forth between the two about 2-3 times a week. I...
