    Coral Mix

    I have 100g tank. I have a mixture of hard and soft corals. Can you also add leather corals? The reason I ask is that I have heard that leather produce toxins. I currently have an open brain, large bubble, duncan, colt, and numerous mushrooms. I am also hoping to add some acans.

    Coral Growth

    I know the tank is a weird size. I have had clams before and they grew without any problem. The died because a stow away crab attacked the foot of the clam and it died. It had nothing to do with lack of light. My level is low, but I'm not sure what is the best way to get the level up?
