Re: temperature swings and coral stress

I've seen similar issues when my AC was acting up. Stable room temp helps a lot. Also, check if your heater's near a powerhead, might be causing uneven heating.

Re: Setting up my marine aquarium

A Firtideflow goby can work in a tank that size. They usually need at least 10 gallons, but I think they'd be alright in a smaller setup. Just not a clown, they're way too big for a tank like that. Gobies are a better fit, they're pretty small and can thrive in smaller spaces.

Re: about dragonets

Re: Neon orange hammer coral

Still waiting on those pics.

edit: Saw the LA one, and yeah, it's got more of a yellow/green vibe, but still looks pretty sweet.
