Just wondering if there is a list of Reef safe fish (coral filled tanks) on the board. If not lets start one. Lets see pics and names of your Favorite reef safe Fish.

Alk is one drawback definatly. I am currently having problems with keeping it stable. Right now it is through the roof yet my effluent is only at 7.2PH. I tuned the reactor back even more so we'll see what happens in a couple days.

Anything would be a great help as i am strugling to find a design that will be sutable for me. My tank is not driled so it...
