when is it safe to add coral into tank
MikeTR
depends.. post details.. parameters.. length of setup.. etc.

ultimately you're looking for stable parameters..
Alk - 9-11
Calc 400-440
pH - 7.8 - 8.4 but STABLE at some number in this range
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 0
Phosphates - 0

What kind of lighting do you have? You'll need to work on the nitrates. Is this a biocube?

Does it look like this?
