My lil coral experiment

[FLESHY]

I am a fairly experienced reefer...I think that this will be tight...and that h2o quality might suffer.

But with only softies and macros...and large water changes, I think it might be possible. Upgrade to a 20g for a little more space for everyone.

Forget it just read up on a story just like mine and his tank crashed in a mateter of days... I think my coral are going to die.... They havnt opened up at all yet. Been 2days. Btw the skimmer is running now it's rated for 50g on a 15g think there's still a chance for my coral?

Did you let the aquarium cycle or anything?

 

[Pazzoman]

If you didn't let your tank cycle, I highly recommend you purchasing "Seachem Stability" I used it for marine quarentine tank sessions and my freshwater fish tank. No fish has died during these sessions...approx 12 fish have gone through this cycling addictive at different times.

 

[Zfishies]

No I def let the tank cycle before I put these corals in will do water check up tomorrow

 

[Pazzoman]

Your best bet is just to monitor the water parameters every other day or daily till progress is visible. Good Luck

Update the polyps are now open but not the rest. I thnk there just taking there time

I agree with what Fleshy said - if you choose the right corals ( ones that filter feed exclusively ) like gorganians, colts, and kenyas - it's possible. However 15 gal. is probably too small for these corals. I didn't include polyps because you said 50% water changes - they'll bleach with temp changes.
