Re: No more tank deaths so far!


That's solid progress, man. Stability's key with Bettas, especially in community setups. What's your temp at? I've found keeping it at 78°F with a reliable heater cuts down on stress. Also, what're you feeding the Corys? They can be picky if the substrate's not right.


Temp's at 77°F, and the ...

Re: What's more beneficial for lps growth

I'm curious about chalices in an SPS tank. Will they thrive or should I choose one type over the other for a healthy tank?
