Touhg to say, thats kinda thrown out the window these days. Looking for LED or T-5? LED will have the same shimmer effect as Metal Halide, T-5 does not.

Reef Crystals for a Reef tank, and Instant Ocean for FOWLR. And you don't have to dose, water changes will take care of the things your corals need.

I think your safe with the Cleaner shrimps. I'm not sure about the Lobster though. He's gonna get pretty big for that tank. But he won't grow overnight. Hmm. He's territorial, so he may get snippy if the others get in his way.
The lighting, hmm, may work, that one you'll have to try. Not sure how much light those LED's actually put off. What wattage are they?

i don't know....

i read that the debiuls is more delicate than amboinensis, is this right?

Delicate? They are both about the same if you ask me. Pretty easy to care for.

someone told me that debelius easily die than amboinensis, thanks for the answer.

Very cool coral. Very hard to care for also. Needs to be spot fed. Not saying you can't keep one, but they are not the easiest to keep.

[razo]

he eats some fish flakes and he is very active in the tank

[Reefing Madness]

Good stuff.

[razo]

i don't have skimmer, for lps coral is a problem?

[Reefing Madness]

You should still be ok with your size tank. If you keep up on the water changes and watch your water parameters.

[razo]

ok thanks maybe i will add some rhodactis and palythoa...

[Reefing Madness]

Good beginner stuff. Should be safe with those.
