What macros for Main tank? - Aquarium Advice

got bait? · 02-24-2004, 03:40 PM

I have a 12 [acronym:2c2d0e23fe="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:2c2d0e23fe] reef with some saw culpera, since no fuge or sump, in the display portion of the tank. I am going to be starting a 100gal reef with fuge. I will have plenty of macros in fuge, but I like the way the macros look in the display portion of the tank. What are a few colorful or just nice looking macros I could put in the main tank that wont over run my tank. i won't have any fish that would eat them either. Just inverts and a goby or two.

Halimeda or Chaetomorpha. Gracilvaria could be good too.

I have some beautiful Halymensia, the fish wont touch it, it grows fast but is very easy to keep pruned. This is a bright reddish pink color.
