Re: Friend's coral care advice: right or wrong?


I've noticed a difference with aquacultured vs maricultured corals in my tank. The aquacultured acros consistently do well, whereas the maricultured ones are hit or miss and often less colorful. It's worth noting that the aquacultured corals I've had success with also happen to be the ones with ...
