Hey everyone! Interestingly enough when I started my soft coral tank, everything is going great, and lemme tell you how surprised I am. Thus far everything I have put into the tank is enjoying their stay. Even my friend who is a reef nut (of about three years) seems very interested in my tank's conditions. He was going to throw out a very much dying leather and was a bit upset because he spent about 35 bucks on it and it fell, started decaying on 2 of the 4 stubs (bad enough for algae to be consuming it!). I jumped at my chance and asked if I could have it to stick it into my tank. He smiled (he was hoping I would say that : )) and after removing some of the stubs with madd algae on it, stuck it into my tank. I hope it does come back, that would be sweet. I recently got a great deal on some mushrooms that also came with the rock so that also adds to my excitement!
I wanted to ask those who keep soft corals what additives have you've been adding to your tank? Thus far I added two drops of iodine (forgot what brand but its hella concetrated!) and on my list is Bio-Calcium, and Magnesium (these being suggested by my friend). Though my tank is new I wanted to have stuff on hand or in case he wants to order somethig so that I could just order with him and split shipping. So please mention any suggestions (whether it be additives or something else) that you use and believe works best for your soft corals, thanks!
