I only have a 45 reef and have only been at this game for 2 years. It is very well stocked with over 40 diff corals etc. I bought Corals a quick ref from Julian Sprung and have followed it without question. I take it with me to the store to be sure I buy only hardy breeds. Now heres my question.
In reading pass forums, I found an article on flower pots. Everyone said you cant get them to live past 6 months. Mine also shrunk and after a dip is now only the size of a quarter and does not extend like it should. The book says its a 7 on the scale ( I do not buy anything under a 6 ) for being hardy. I along with everyone else, have lost my fair share of corals a large open brain, bubble coral, green finger leather, flowerpot ( soon), just to name a few while other right next to them are growing and healthy.
Is there a better reference to what is hardy in a home reef and what conditions they like???
