adding corals

[bradford]

when they say that if you add too many things to your tank at once it will hurt your water quality, are they talking about fish or corals. Or both?

 

[Travis L. Stevens]

They are talking mainly about fish because they produce more waste quicker than your bacteria population can grow to handle. But, invertebrates are also the same way, but they present a fraction of the bioload. For every one fish, you can probably equal the amount 10 moderate size invertebrates. Including shrimp, crabs, coral, anemones, etc.

I added 3 or 4 corals at a time to my tank and everything seemed fine. I would never add more than two fish at a time to be on the safe side.

The amount of fish and corals you add all depends on the size of your tank
