I notice in your second picture some of your corals are browned out and some look a lot less colorful. Is it just the camera?

what about using a urchin? i heard they eat coral line algae.

cilyjr · 11/07/2009, 06:47 PM

the one i have barely makes a dent in the coraline on a 20l so i doubt it would do much to my 90
