Hey guys. I was planning on turning my old 12 gallon into a frag tank. My question is, how often would I have to do water changes on a tank without fish and just coral?

If you your normal water changes you will see better results with your coral. But you can go longer ( every 3-4 weeks) depending on your water parameters. Since it is only a 12 gallon I would still stay on top of it

I would recommend it! Not because it has any spectacular benefits but ever since I got mine the other day I have been obsessed with watching it! There was a very cool frag swap an hour from my home last weekend that I went to and the turnout and quality of the corals was very impressive and I couldn't help but buy my clam when I saw it there

My clam is a squamosa clam so it doesn't need as high of a light requirement as other clams

Hey I was looking for some advice on lighting. I found some on amazon, eBay and a link someone sent me. The two best I think are taotronics Tt-AL09 dim able aquatic coral reef LED grow light 120W output, blue/white ratio 28:27 2 pieces advanced heat sinks, 3 pieces 0.1 A fans, 90 degree beam angle for 189.99. Or I can save with one off of eBay, 24" 96W lighting T5 aquarium light hood saltwater coral fish actinic florescent. I can't have a light hanging on my wall or from my ceiling so which one of these would be better for my tank? I'm assuming the dimmable one, but if I can save with the other one, cool. But ik ik this is not a hobby that is cheap. Jw.

Can u make hanging brackets to go on your stand? The leds need to be hung no ifs ands or butts lol. They need to be a minimum of a foot above the water, if u cant make hangingbrackets on your stand and cant hang from wall or ceiling then go with the t5 that sits right on your tank,
