No problem that is what I do but I am sure people like different numbers it works for me

I will run with your numbers

Don't chase a specific number. Chase consistency for each number.

User Avatar @leonard1990 1y

I will do that

User Avatar @FloridaMan007 1y

Just to be clear, you still want to start off aiming for safe parameters for each one. But after you've reached those safe numbers, that's when you just stay consistent with them. Know what I mean?

Also things that kill corals are parameter swings! Once you stay within the safe numbers don’t let them drop

Ok I will do that

I'd raise salinity to 1.025. Your calcium is a little high but it should go down as you add more hard coral.

Raise salinity 1.025 and more coral what are some hardy corals I wanted to get a couple Duncan's

User Avatar @BristleWormHater 1y

Duncans, blastos, favia, acans, and candy cane's are all good options.

The app has a tracker with a graph of what is a good range.
