ok thanks. guess i'll just keep adding live rock then. i like having him in the main tank.

I have a chocolate chip star in my tank and want to start adding coral. I have been told not to, the star fish will eat them. anything it wont eat? there are some great local deals on coral right now and i wanna get in on it.

I want some more LR, but my wife disagrees with me. I have a local place that sell LR for $7/lb and is already cured.

Haven't decided yet on going reef.

mushrooms good/bad?
