Hence the reason I recommended montis or birdsnest if you wanted to try putting some sps into a tank that young.

Why don't you start a new thread about this issue? Or maybe PM him? Just because someone doesn't do something the way you suggest, doesn't mean it gives you the right to harass that person. Not all newbies are willing to take advice...they're already experts, dontcha know?

On the subject...I find this awfully interesting. I would also be really interested to find out if there is a "perfect" PAR/PPFD for individual corals. I bet there is.
