LPS and Softies?

[landragon]

Is this a possibility in a 90? I can run carbon, and have a relatively large skimmer. I want to combine my soft tank with my LPS tank. I have torch, trachophyllia, Maze brain, neon trumpet, pagoda cup, Blasto, Bubble, in my LPs and Shrooms, toadstool, neon sinularia, unknown leather, zoas, rics, in the softie tank. If I can't combine all of this , what xan I combine? Thanks

I think your getting it mixed up with some people recommend not putting softies with acropora. LPS and softies are fine. Carbon is optional but not required.

You'll be fine, don't worry about it. Just remember, that anything that has feeder/sweeper tentacles needs to be AT LEAST 3-6 inches from anything else, possibly more if they are really long.

I have a 30gL with : frogspawn, hammer, birdsnest, 2 diff colored monti caps, pineapple brain, trumpet, candycane, gsp, psp, all kinds ofshrooms, zoa's, and rics. It's getting crowded though and we're upgrading to a 75.

FWIW, HTH,

I dont see any problem with your list. torches and bubbles both can generate long feeder tenacles and sting other corals.

i have lps and softies in the same tank... they sting eachother once in a while but it keeps them seperate

I have a completely mixed tank (sps, lps, and softies) and as long as things don't touch, I haven't had any problems. I run carbon 24/7 and water change every two weeks ~25%, but currently only lightly skim (soon to be remedied). The biggest challenge I've had is figuring out how to make everything happy with flow and light...
