That looks pretty sweet. I did can you not see them? Whats that coral you have growing

 

[Reefkeepr1986]

It looks like it is a rose!! Anyone else?? It's just hard to tell with the pic being to blurry.

 

[Reefkeepr1986]

My pics show the nem light colored but it's actually bright pink with white tips!! And the green coral is a nuke green candy coral!!

 

[RoDogVillan]

Got that 9lb live rock and the rose for 60$. Also had a peppermint shrimp full size hitchhiker that i didnt know about haha i got a steal.

 

[RoDogVillan]

What kind is the nuke green? I need to upgrade on my lights

 

[Reefkeepr1986]

Nice that's a deal for the size of rock and nem!! It is a Green Candy Cane LPS (Large Polyp Stony)
Here's a clear pic of him!!

 

[RoDogVillan]

Hmmm whats his price? You think i could have him on my lights i have. 2 t5 ho 48" one white one blue

 

[Reefkeepr1986]

I got him for 25$ when it was smaller!! From a buddy!! As for your lights I would upgrade them so that you can keep hard corals that need good lighting but this coral you actually have to feed it manually!! I feed it every other day mysis shrimp and Krill!! It does benefit from light through their photosynthetic zooxanthellae but needs nutrients, calcium to grow healthy!!

 

[Reefkeepr1986]

I've kept hard corals using VHO (Very high output) in the past but now I'm using LEDs!!

 

[RoDogVillan]

Yeah led are outrageously expensive

 

[Reefing Madness]

Yeah led are outrageously expensive

Expensive? Not anymore they aren't. You can get a good one for $90 nowadays. (120w-3wleds-full spectrum)

You can go Halide lighting which has great light penetration!! I like 14kelvins bulbs IMO there just the perfect combination!! But honestly lighting, Skimmer, return pump and heater Are four things that shouldn't be skimped!! IMO.
If lights can't penetrate your water efficiently corals and nems that depend on light may die or won't grow.
If the skimmer is a cheep one, excess Nutrients will build and cause headaches.
If the return pump fails either sump overflows or it will overheat and cause a crash.
And if the heater fails it will kill everything in your reef wether it be not functioning or overheats.
hope that helps!! Not to scare you or anything just made those mistakes in the past and would hate it to happen to anybody else!!
