This is one of the more recent and cutting-edge methods of reef restoration, which we believe holds the greatest promise for the future. http://bit.ly/RNNnewsJeremy151-2 Mini MACNA February 27, 2021 The Location: Online 1 Day, 3 Speakers, 1 Workshop, 1 Panel Discussion, and More! Adopting an online format for a mid-year gathering, mini MACNA is an opportunity for our community to come together and continue to learn about our incredible marine aquarium hobby. Mini MACNA will be held on February 27, 2021, as a webinar event, with the theme of Overcoming Challenges in Reefkeeping. Jamie Cragg: For my talk, I'll be covering advances in coral spawning system designs, some challenges of coral spawning at home, and tips on spawning new species, and finally, I'll be focusing on approaches to produce new coral color morphs through selective breeding of chimeras (grafted coral) and its future potential for the industry. http://bit.ly/RNNnewsJeremy151-1 Peter- Live Rocks- How they should be treated So, the first concern is to keep them healthy and active bacteria alive, which is used in the nitrification before and the denitrification after. Our interlocutor believes that the majority of pathogenic parasites aren't introduced with the rocks, but with the corals, so he never treats the rocks with chemical/osmotic systems, or similar. http://bit.ly/RNNnewsPeter151 Hydros XS Hits the market! http://bit.ly/RNNnewsHydrosXS Main Topic: The Anthias Algorithm Anthias have mixed reviews in the hobby and with good reason! The stunning colors and patterns along with the sometimes-high difficulty level for successful keeping, make for a polarizing reputation. We believe almost every species we care for has different care levels, even on a case-by-case basis, but with good preparation you can put yourself in the best position for success!

You want a strong colony of this bacteria because it naturally controls the nitrates in a tank. Corals need some small levels of nitrates and phosphates to thrive. But too much of either can lead to problems like coral death or algae bloom.
