Thanks CCR, Good reading...

Thanks everyone...Im loving the info, keep it coming. Im like a sponge...I had 6 3inch Frags and they peeled back in about 48hrs. Could have just been Nicrosis? I also have a 8G Salt and noticed a small Worm that has little bristley looking hairs on it. If these are in my bigger tank could this have been eating my Hard Corals? If these are bad, how do I get rid of them? Thanks everyone, I am just gun shy after the loss of my other corals.

Does anyone have any suggestions for Auto testers, Im selling my 79' Toyota Pickup, in hopes to be able to put the money in my new tank... I love it so much its Crazy

One of the reasons I thought a CR would be a good Idea is keeping stability in the tank....

Yes, I did have a Nitrate issue. I didnt realize in my sump I have a chamber in which I had BIO-Balls in it. Ive takin them out now...Do you think that Nitrates at 10--20 ppm for short time could kill them? And what is a reasonable Calcium level. I have 1 Monti, 1 Frogspawn, 1 Candycane, 1 flowerpot, Tree Leather, leather I think thats it...and what else should I be keeping track of with a new CR running...

Im in need of advise, as I have heard many opinions and its hard to know what to think. I have a 39G Tank thats been up for 1.5 Yrs and has been running great for the last 6-9 months. In the bigging there where many learning curves. I run a Prcision Venturi Skimmer and have a 20 Gal Sump. I just perchesed a 80G and picked up a Calcium Reactor. I have had no luck with keeping Hard Corals but have had Leathers and Frogspawn, Flowerpot,Recordia's and they are doing great. I have always had Calcium levels of 480 to 520 most the time. My thought is not having a CR has made the levels rise and fall to much. I am hoping for advise as to if running CR will help me grow Acro's... Oh I also have 1 VHO actinic and 1 400w 20000K MH.
