Adding Coral

[cbruce24]

Just got my tank cycled and was told that i can put fish in it! I put a pair of clowns in early this week, and they are doing great together. I have dry rock in tank along with live sand. When can i add corals to my tank? Does my rock have to be live before i can do this? I just want some color added to tank.I know time/patience is a huge factor in this.
Thanks!!!!

How big is your tank? What kind of lighting do you have? What exactly are your parameters? If everything's ok, you can go ahead and add some corals. Go slow though. Maybe add one, wait a few weeks & see how it does, and then go ahead and add another. It would suck to buy a bunch of corals right off the bat, only to watch them perish because your tank is not entirely stable yet. GL.

I would have waited longer to add the fish, but corals will not add to your bioload. Something easy to take care of like a zoa would be a good pick. They are easy to grow and colorful.
