Hi, I was just curious how people are getting on with this light? Has anyone had any really good coral growth with it and if so what kind of settings do you have? More blue? Maybe more white or just even? Just a general thread to see how people get on with it and if they like it

I used aqua medic antired. Worked a treat with no side effects

How long does it usually take for them to start spreading?

Some positive feedback then that's making me want to give it a try with a flame angel. I suppose I will never know if I don't try it for myself. Just got to keep them well fed and my corals will be left in tact fingers crossed lol

So you do have "reef caution" fish in your aquarium? How has it worked out for you?

That's what I need then. Nobody arguing or eating things they shouldn't. Just everyone getting along in a peaceful tank :) there are plenty of fish out there that can create that environment, I'm just looking in the wrong place at the moment

You have been lucky with him then :) fancy sending him to England? Lol I think I will actually stay away from angels on this occasion in fear of him nipping at any of my corals

I would hate that to happen to my tank so that steers me away from angels even more but I still love them lol yeah he is a gorgeous fish. Does he hide a lot with him being a wrasse?

That hasn't been decided yet. We haven't really got the space for a bigger tank just yet but hopefully in the future. The Midas is awesome! I haven't really looked much at them but I definitely will now. Thanks for the link :)

True, it's going to be a risk and I know it may not work. It looks like my head will have to overrule my heart on this occasion because truthfully the corals are what I really want in this tank

I knew that would be the answer lol but more importantly the right one. I won't be buying any tangs for this tank so I will just have to look forward to an upgrade in the future. I'm still undecided on the flame but I will really think about that one. I'm just looking for a really beautiful fish...

Point taken. I was just wondering what the implications are and the answer is quite severe in the long run. We keep our aquariums mainly for the fish so why would we want to harm them by putting them in to the wrong environment. I will definitely resist temptation in buying tangs but a flame...

I'm guessing a blue tang is out of the question too then? They have baby ones in our LFS but I just think they will grow and we'll have to get rid. I'm constantly telling my girlfriend in the LFS "no" haha "can we get this one?" "No!" Haha we eventually settle on new corals and she is happy...

Thats what I thought. I wasn't keen on doing it and have been careful so far in choosing fish. Mine is only 180 litre so around 48 us gallons soft reef. Not a lot really but I've seen it done so it got me thinking. I'm only thinking of a yellow tang and a flame angel but I don't want the tang to...
