My second nano, a 7g minibow, is stable, and ready for a coral (I hope?). This is also my first saltwater tank that I will attempt corals (first being a FOWLR nano). This might need to go in newbie forum, but because of nano-lighting, I started it here.
I am going to purchase a red sea xenia frag. My lighting is from two 13watt PC's, 1 10k, and one combo. 7 lbs live rock, 2.5" sand bed. Water circulation from whisper HOB with no media, and 100G/H powerhead. No skimmer. Parameters are at good levels, and have been that way for a while. My questions are as follows:
1. Will my lighting be sufficient? I have plenty of room to place it close to my lighting.
2. Will my water flow be sufficient?
3. When I get my coral (from the web), how do I acclimate the coral to my water? (looking for soaking bag, adding water intervals, etc.)
4. How do I "fasten" my coral to the rock once I have added it, without moving my LR?
Please help! Thanks.
