What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
I would say daily water testing and correcting any irregularities that are not within my parameters, is the key to my reef’s success.

The clowns worried me at first because they wouldn’t leave the Giga alone but the giga does not seem to be bothered by them which seems strange…lol
My clowns have been hosted by my duncan, the duncan could care less. A few months ago they tried it with my frogspawn which got really ticked off.

Does anyone on the Smorgasbord have any experience/luck with Anacropora?
Wrong thread…lol
But yes I have kept an anacropora.
They are pretty hardy and easy kinda like a montipora digitata as far as growth rate and care.
