| Re: "Bulletproof Reef" Setup from day On Very nice. What kind of corals will you be keeping mainly? _________  &&Right now I'm in the middle of a conversion from reef to Discus/ planted aquarium. Hair algae beat me down. Maybe a nano in the future. Everything screwed up so I'm converting to FOWLR. Wish me luck. |

| Re: "Bulletproof Reef" Setup from day On I'm wondering about the rock. Do they contain sawdust to help add texture?
If so, if the wood that the sawdust came from is Galvanized(spelling?), doesn't that contain copper/iron/zinc. wouldn't that cause unneeded metals be added into the system?
