    I am setting up a new 125 tall and plan to go with a plenum and 4" bed of carib sea. Have had great luck with the handy reef in the past, but everyone here where I now live either have bare bottom or berlin systems and they all say that is it better for the long haul. Has anyone used the...

    Well, I know it is partially my fault, but green hair algae has all but ruined my love of this hobby. My tank has looked like an Irish Chubaka since late November.

    LFS called this coral a flowerpot. Is it? I have been looking online and the pics show something else. Long "stemmed" corals. And... are there any special needs here? It was doing really well for a few months... but seems to be degrading. : (
