Well, #4 I think is a sponge. #2, maybe an encrusting porites? I am sure your chocolate chip star will find them delicious, since it eats corals.

I would say you will need about 250 watts minimum.

First time poster. I recenly went from fish only to live rock with some
corals. got 30 pounds of rock with corals for $60, could not pass on the
deal. A few i can not id i have pics of them on my webpage at
http://community.webtv.net/wayno72/fishtank
any help on the corals would be great.
I am using seachem products for my calcium, Alk. Ph and supplements.
calcium is at 380
Alk. is at 9 DKH with ph at 8.3
I know i need more light, right now i have one 96w 10,000 k and one
15 w actinic, was great for 55 gallon fish only. any advice on how much
lighting i should get? and type? power compact, what bulbs?
Ive been using a remora skimmer, which fits right in with the
liverock. Do i still need to use my other filters? Magnum 350 with
micron cart.
Penguin 330 with bio-wheels and carbon in the baskets

thanks in advance for any reply
Wayno
