Talked to a friend of mine and he said it was old dead coralline from when the rocks were used previously. The spots might have been bleached out and regained color when put back in salt water.

Yeah, I don't know how it could be though. The only the I put in it from any active tank was the 1/4 cup of sand. And my buddy's tank, while it has some, isn't exactly swimming with it. I mean anything is possible, I just don't feel that it's likely. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Okay here's the details. Just set up a 20 gallon long 2 weeks ago. Have 2 OC clowns in it. Running an aquatech 30-60 hob with pillow floss. Today I noticed pink spots in my rocks. Only outside introduction to the tank was about a 1/4 cup of sand from a friends tank to help cycle the rocks...

Yeah that won't be an issue. One of my favorite parts of having a fish tank is doing stuff to it. Cool tank dude! It looks good. Thanks for the help :)

Cool. Thanks! Wasn't sure if I could do more then a pair of clowns but this makes me feel a lot better.

How is your bioload with the fish you have? I'm about to start a 20g long reef and want to have an idea of what I want to do for livestock.

Okay, I might do that. One more bulb is a lot cheaper than the other fixtures. Thanks for the help!

I thought the blue was more cosmetic tho. Do you think a single bulb would be okay in the meantime? I'm not interested in running 2 of those bulbs, if I'm pushing 100w I'm just going to grab a taitronics or briglux fixture. This is something interim until I have 130-170 bucks lying around.

It's an LED http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?index=0&sbk=1&nav=SEARCH&itemId=111115630726 Here's a link to it

54w par38 bulb in 20g reef Will that be enough light for corals? I'm not looking for anything fancy, just something to start out with. In case anyone asks here are the tank specs. 12W x 24L x 16H 20 gallon Aquatech HOB 30-60 (330 gph) Petco power head (125 gph) Gunna have 2-3 inch sand bed...

It's gone! I had a lot less than I thought! I'll repost when I got some more

I'm selling java moss $3 for golfball sized piece. Shipping should be $6 for anywhere in the lower 48. Let me know how much you need. I'm guessing I have 6 or 7 clumps for sure. Not gunna trim it til it's needed.

I like the new background. Makes it look a lot cleaner and allows you to focus on other elements of the tank. Super cool.

Just keep up on the water changes and make sure that ammonia and nitrite stay below 0.25 ppm. I would think that him trying to swim around is a good sign. Right now I would keep up with what you're doing, it seems like it is helping him. Good luck!
