Looking for some help.
I'm in the beginning process of switching my 75G from a FOWLER to a reef aquarium. I plan to have only soft and LPS corals. In anticipation, I have already purchased (but haven't yet installed) a LiterMeter 3 dosing pump to be used with an Aquamedic 1000 Kalk stirrer. Have been running my skimmer for several weeks to clean up the water.
So my question...
I have power compact lighting (65W x 4 bulbs) giving me only
3.5 watts/gallon. I know this is not adequate for all of the potential coral choices, so I've been trying to find a source of info that will tell me the requirements (lighting, calcium levels, etc) by species. That way I can buy some appropriate corals now, and upgrade my lighting as required down the road when I want more demanding species.
Everything I seem to find is very generic like "medium light, medium flow".
Does anyone know of a good book or website?
Thanks
