Hello,
I wondered for those who have an aquarium fishless, no big weirdo invertebrate or anything, just coral.
What is your experience, and what is your routine with your tank?
I have one of my aquarium that has just coral, I don't have algae which makes thing very easy to maintain. I do not feed the coral either, It's something I experimented for a year now.
However, in the tank, the soft coral are not doing well, they started to shrink. I'm assuming it is because of no source of food. I did added some amino to see if it could help but it didn't, they seem not to be able to synthesize the amino correctly, missing some elements to perform. At some point when doing a water change, instead of making new water for that tank, I use the water from another tank that has some fishes and that I feed. The corals recover a little bit, seem to be a good but... I feel for soft coral that it's not even enough and they want food poop with than help of bacteria. Coraline algae grew everywhere.
