newbie on SPS, need tips on keeping it

Postby created2praise » Fri Nov 18, 2011 9:25 pm

Hi sirs, gurus.. :D
Have just adopted green Acros from sir Edwin (thanks sir, a very nice tank you have there.. :D )
Just would like to ask for tips for this beautiful creature to thrive in my tank.. By the way, my tank is about a year old.. thanks in advance.

Here are some of my concern:
Lighting requirement (photo period, does it require lighting at night time? I totally turn off my lights during night)
placement in the tank (top, bottom, middle)
Acclimation?
maximum temp

thanks again,
Ven

Heard from the experts that you need to have 0 nitrates. Good luck on that.

for sps to grow, you should have 0 nitrates and phosphates, 8 dkh, 400+ppm Ca, max of 28deg centrigrade (requiring a chiller), and bright lights.. for it to color up is another story..
