    In nature, the currents feed them plankton and whatever else might be in the water column that day. :)

    haha, it's under control i was just fighting gda and i was waiting it out. It was extremely difficult not cleaning the glass for 2weeks straight. Believe me, i have been itching to clean for awhile now.

    Is that enough light for a 55 gal? Just curious?

    its deffinately not a bad start, but the general rule of thumb is to have about 5 or so whatts per gallon, some even have upwords of 10 or more, heck if i went by the old rule of measuring i have 15 right now but my corals dont seem to mind one bit..

    so are my lights insufficient for a 55gallon. I have other soft corals that seem to be doing well.
