Hangin' w/ Rome from SWR
So, I finally have 4 t5s!!!!! Although it's just 2 2bulbs, my tank still looks legit!!!:bounce1::celeb3: This means hopefully I'll finally be growing some sps. So based on everybody's opinion and experience, what is the easiest sps to start with? I don't care too much about color, I just want something that is rough and tumble, and practically impossible to kill, as long as the lights are stong enough.
And to add some insight on my tank, lights:2 ATI Blue+, Fiji Purple, and a 10,000K. All are 39watts. My tank is 46 gallons. I have a 1 inch sand bed, 60lbs or so of live rock, I run gfo in a hob filter, I have a refugium that i've been growing chaeto in for a few months. Prizim Red Sea HOB skimmer, a nano korillia, a 75g tank rated powerhead, 120watt heater. I do plan on making a 20g tall sump with a 1700gph Rio pump, I will grow macros in there (not sure on the lighting though.) Livestock: 1 blue/green chromis, one scooter blenny, one peppermint shrimp, 6 turbo snail, 3 nassarius snails, 2 hermits, 2 ceriths, 1 margarita, and a 4-5" dia GBTA. Corals are: 100+ brown/pink palys, zoas, pulsing xenia, kenya trees, cabbage coral, GSPs, a few ricordeas, a NPS chili coral, 2 orange crush acans, and a super green head of duncan. Whew....that was a lot to list! Hopefully all that info will help somebody to point me in the right direction for picking out a nice piece of SPS
Full tank shot is coming soon! :beer: -Justin-
