Just a little background. . . Right now I have 2 marine tanks: 75g and 30g. I've completely redone the 75 with sugar sized aragonite and right now I have 90lbs live rock that is cycling right as we speak. I also am adding a new metal halide light system I just bought. I obviously will be waiting a while until I do more research on proper coral care and let the tank age a little bit before considering adding in something other than that.
The dilemma is this . . . I'm currently getting my masters degree and where I am living currently is temporary, and I know this. I have until at least June of 2008 here if not August or September or maybe even longer. Bottom line, I know I will be leaving within a year. If you were me, would you hold off adding corals pretty much until you were settled or add an extremely small amount of some hardy coral (not sure what yet, so feel free to add in your opinion if you'd choose that option)? I've been debating for a few months now on the topic and have yet to figure it out on my own. Opinions?
