    New Reef tank!

    i am going to keep the bio ball wet/dry filtration. i have been reading a lot about them and I think it will be ok. I will have to clean them in portions every few months.

    New Reef tank!

    i understand but i have been told that if you use algae sheets it will keep them grazing and what not instead of swimming. ive also heard its a 50/50 chance of the hippo tang being type that swims back and forth a ton. and do you know what lighting i need to purchase?
  15. E

    New Reef tank!

    yes i have been thinking about that. how much is a refractor? also what lighting should i get. i want metal halide. but how much lighting is needed to not have limited coral options? what about the fish? are they ok?
