Bean's 300 Gallon AGE Build

If you want to be extra careful you can work up to that 75%, start with like 25% and add more later or next day.

Wrasse and Prazi haven't gotten along for me either.

That sounds like a safe way to go. I can do that. :thumbsup:

So I caved and ordered 100 lbs of CaribSea Special Grade sand.

Was it the coralline or the settling detritus that made you change your mind?

Mainly the overall look. And my love for leopard wrasses put me over the edge.

I like the idea though. Ill go a thin layer so I can vacuum it all without issue.

Coraline on the bottom would get old Id say. Im going to try to not keep corals on the sand bed... at the least the majority of it anyway.

It looked so clean before but I know it wouldnt last hehe

Haha soon it will be cover with corals. That's why most aquascape look really nice at start but by the time the corals grow out then you lose the shape n design of the scape. The old day we buy colonies so we kind of know the shape of the corals now everything grow from frags it can be any direction

The plan is to grab a few of your stags for the back!
