Hi. New guy here.
I’ve got a couple of novice questions…
I’ve acquired a reef tank (60g cube)
but still need to find a sump and the rest of the components.
Once I’ve got the whole rig together and properly cycled-
Will I certainly need a power head to move the water and benefit the coral?
If yes which one?
I love soft coral, the kind that tends to sway around with the movement of the water. I’m concerned in this small tank (24x24x24) about blowing the soft coral to pieces.
The tank is acrylic (I know scratch city lol). would a magnetic wave maker hold and stay put?
Which light? I despise the reefs with the blue or “black light” look.
Is there a decent light that looks more like natural daylight?
I don’t care if the coral colors don’t “pop” quite as much as they do with the blue light.
Bare bottom (no sand) is what I prefer and I would like to add two or three fish (I like clowns) after the coral has began to flourish/establish.
Are two or three fish too many for approximately 60 gallons?
How off base am I?
Regards!
