OK, I admit I am addicted as you can see by my sig I have gone over the edge adding my corals. So much for waiting until after the first of the year.
Anyway, I have been using Sprungs book as a guide for hardiness, lighting, placement and feeding. Problem is it great for identifying corals, but not much of a narative.
Just wondering what is a safe distance for coral placement? So far I do not have anything closer than about 4" from another coral.
What I do not understand is how they are aggressive. I can see how the bubble coral can reach out and sting something with tenacles, but what about the brain and others that do not have visible tenacles and are still rated fairly high for aggressiveness.
No problems so far and the new T-5 lighting seems to be doing the trick as the corals I do have seem to be thriving and I finally have coralline actively growing, just want to avoid any future problems.
Probably done for a while as I am quickly running out of room.
TIA,
