    Ive really never done anything special to keep them and have a very standard tank..

    What are your issues? They die right away? After "x" amount of time..? Give us some more info.

    They used to turn brown and then they would die off slowly..I have pleanty of light and pleanty of flow..my alk stays pretty much constent as does my ph..only thing i can tink of is my mg is off, but from what ive been reading most people dont test for mg..if thats important for sps i would think they would test for that also

    What kind of light? What kind of bulbs if T5/MH? Old bulbs dont put off good light - If they are old that could be why.
