What made you use Tonga branches over live rock

[Rosseau]

Interesting rock for sure. They would look great covered in zoanthids.

[bradford]

I like the open space and water flow through the rocks, I know it doesnt look to good now but I think eventualyy when they do become covered in corraline and zoanthids like rosseau said it will look much better

I understand the attraction to tonga branch. I have a huge chunk of it in my system.

It seems to be the dominant LR in your tank though, so be careful and add livestock at a reasonable rate. Tonga branch isn't very porous, and thus is limited in its capacity for biological filtration.

Ditto on the tonga! looks great but you should get another variety in there too!

[bradford]

wow thanks zotzer I didn't even think of that, one good thing is that I do only have one fish so that helps a little

[bradford]

thanks kingfisher62 I eventually will add some fiji lr, although the real estate in my tank is slowly running out :)

[bradford]

its kind of funny but my clown fish is nuzzled in my toadstool he thinks its an anemone, is that weird?

[bradford]

Those clowns will almost host anything!
As you buy coral you will probably collect LR they are attached to anyway.
