Well my heater is in the final chamber, just preference. If you don't want the filter you could still keep the heater there.

Figured out a few more. Green starburt zoas, fruit loops and rastas. But the last ones seem to be super expensive every time i see them

I got my 2 polyps (now 7) of fruit loops for $10 a polyp. Not unreasonable. I can't seem to find cheap Rastas though. Your best bet would be through other hobbyists.

What does a "garden" mean? do you just put a bunch of different kinds near each other?

BioCube 8

A bunch of different varieties of the same coral grouped closely together we call gardens. Usually done with zoas/palys, rics/shrooms, or acans.

Zoa and paly R pretty close. Paly is basically a big zoa. Polyps are most corals. The fleshy part which looks attractive. LPS ( large POLYP stony) SPS ( small POLYP stony )
