Starting a grow tank

Joshua Hurst · Jun 29, 2017

Hey everyone! Been awhile since I've posted, but ive remodeled my tank into a grow tank (I found that I like coral way to much so I might
as well have a tank that can grow more!

) . I have a good amount of money saved up and was wondering if anyone wanted some awesome corals within the future? I'm currently thinking of some space invader corals, and some different kind of kraken zoa's, some rainbow corals as well.
LFS stores are too expensive and a local LFS meant only for the community and not for making money is what Knoxville needs. No local LFS has bright stunning corals; so whatever corals you guys are praying for let me know, and I'd love to begin growing them out!

You might want to consider actually having a successful reef tank before you venture into a growout.

Ive had aptasia for abit, but I've gotten it under Controll now it seems. My corals started to grow so much that there wasn't enough for them better yet to grow even more. I'll post some pictures soon of the progress. Anyone have a magnesium test kit they like alot? I need one, and didn't love redsea's

I think it's cool that you want to explore coral. Go for it!

My tank is almost at its 2 year mark. Had two corals deaths and one single algae outbreak the 2nd month of my tank. Since then it's been a constant Contributor to me learning about the ocean and I want to move further into corals. I'm no newcomer; all I ever do is read about the science of corals, and nutrients in The water. My tank speaks for itself
