    Red face Poor Luck With Corals

    I have never had good luck with soft or hard corals. I always have been told that my equipment was good, good water quality, but eventually I would lose them. I'm now down sizeing to a "24G Nano Cube Deluxe" model #7051. Comes standard with two 60 x 60 mm cooling fans, (2) 36 watt combo bulbs and remote ballast, 290 GPH. Are there such a thing as bullet proof hard or soft corals?

    you could try Anthelia (clove polyps), i have some Rhodactis mushrooms that have survived everything i have thrown at them (they were my first shrooms), and you may also want to look into maybe something like a Frog spawn or some other torch coral (as they are all pretty hardy).

    Iv found that any mushrooms and botton polyps are hard to kill also pulsing xeina iv also found extremly hard to kill/ get rid off . Might be a good idea to try some of that
