Live vs. dried coral

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Or sometimes they die from starvation because they are filter feeders. Some anemones require alot of light some don't. They need current to get there nutrients to them. But a wicked protein skimmer and an unexperienced hobbyist is usually the killer of an anemone. Keeping multiple anemones is more of a task since alot of corals are territorial and will kill each other and in turn poison the tank. Whatever happened to Nemo's anemone anyways he must be lonely.

What about coral though is dried up or live better to go when your first starting up
no not live when first starting!
they are like fish... they will not be able to stand the cycle
process! plus you need correct lighting and also you have to feed them.
go with live rock, and you can add dried coral
 
what do you feed live coral?
 
it all depend on what type. some can handle peices of chopped up shrimp(i.e. hammer coral, frogsawn coral, and zoo's just to name a few).
