How do I prepare an Acro to go in the tank?

I've started to buy some acro colonies. What should I do to 'prep' the coral to go into the tank? Is fresh water dip a common preventative step? If so how do I do it properly? Is there anything else...

This is an easy SPS they grow and encrust quite quickly. It is one of the first SPS I got.

I will try this out tonight, I'd much rather save the whole colony rather than frag it.

Thanks!

Can I save this acro?

I've had this acro for about 4 weeks. There isn't any color to it yet, if it were to color up I think it would be a nice blue. A small patch of white on the lower left corner has appeared and it's...

I would say it's the ignitor. Does the ballast still 'buzz' when you turn it on? If the previous owner had problems with the ignitor then you had better look into what's causing it to fail.

Manual removal is difficult but possible. When I had some in my nano all it took was an emerald crab and it was all gone in no time and stayed that way.

Yeah I thought about that. I'm more interested in even light distribution and if I used a 6 bulb 54 watt T5 setup it might be worth it on power savings but maybe 6 bulbs wouldn't be enough.

Hi Doug,

Yes that's right the tank is 30 inches deep. At the moment the SPS that I have is placed higher up and is growing pretty good. Anemone's and LPS are lower down.

Switching from MH to T5?

I'll only bump this once. Lots of good pieces, it will just take a little work to clear up the algae.
