 |  Hello everyone!
Just a little background on myself.
I have been in the hobby for about 20 years and keeping/studying Elegance corals for about 18. I have kept many animals in my time but the Elegance has really captured my passion. While I don't know much about SPS corals or some of the newer corals coming into the hobby, I feel I can help others in this small area of reef keeping where Elegance corals are concerned. There is still a lot I can learn and look forward to picking your brains about the many animals we keep.

Hi Darrell, welcome to 3reef! I must say that Elegance corals are very beautiful, however, having heard negative stories about them being difficult to keep, I have shunned away from this beautiful coral!

Best of luck with your tanks and continued success in the saltwater hobby! | You were wise to stay away from Elegance corals these days. I have spent the past year and a half researching the problem we have been having with these corals. After countless hours and way to much money, I now believe I know what has been causing all of our problems. I'll start a new thread on the subject, but where should I start it? | |
