thegambler26 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 My lights are just the regular ones that come with the tank, 10k Ill check out your thread matt and i will soon, i just dont want to rush it as i just added the clowns Thanks devil, although your scape is pretty sweet also and thanks for the advice alto Sorry I didn't read the whole thread. The ones that came with the tank are PCs? If that's the case you could put that Ricordia anywhere. Higher up might actually be better. Link to comment
CAmor07 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 Any advice on where the best spot for the ricordia would be with the lights, i guess whats the best level according to the lighting Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Any advice on where the best spot for the ricordia would be with the lights, i guess whats the best level according to the lighting Just put it somewhere and if it doesn't to like the spot, move it. They do fine under any lighting and low flow Link to comment
CAmor07 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 Thanks and last question, i swear. The way i can tell if it doesnt like its spot is if it curves or shrinks. Is it obvious if it does one of these Link to comment

Is it obvious if it does one of these You should be able to tell if it doesn't like the spot. If it cups upward, it's not getting enough light. If it stays shrunken all day, it's probably getting too much flow or too much light, though the latter is highly unlikely in a biocube. Link to comment

You should be ok. Those are all really forgiving corals anyway. I never drip acclimate my corals. Some people do, but I don't think it's necessary. Just a 20 minute float in the tank to equalize temperatures, followed by a dip in CoralRX to get rid of unwanted hitchhikers. After that it either goes in quarantine or the display tank depending on what coral it is. Link to comment
CAmor07 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 I dont think im gonna dip them, its coming from a local guy. Dont see a point. Am i wrong Link to comment

Am i wrong I wouldn't risk it considering how little effort it takes. Just mix up some dip with tank water, throw the corals in for 10 minutes while stirring a couple times, then rinse them off with fresh tank water. You never know what might be in his tank that you don't want in yours. Just my 2 cents. Link to comment
