How many mulities?

I only keep 1" of sand substrate for Shellies they will excavate your sand bed..

Multis are a great fish. I used to have a nice colony in a 20long. The males are generally larger than the females and have a longer looking body. If you buy a larger number of the smaller sized and a few larger ones, it's a good chance you'll get a good male/female ratio.

Great fish ! I've been thinking of starting up another colony myself. I sold the last batch off to make room for a reef.

actually my water is very hard, its keeping a higher ph that worries me my tap water ph now is around 7.6

Do you know the KH? pH is not really a problem anyways.

You will be fine the substrate will buffer it to maintain your properties.. Most Tang's can hold at 9.0 PH and over 400ppm Hardness..

The chart in my AP KH/GH testing kit only reads to 12 drops of test solution and it requires about 15 drops so i dont know the exact KH reading Ill retest right now and make sure thats right its been about 3 weeks since i first checked it and i havent checked it since.

I lied it only takes 8 drops so 143.2ppm :huh:

Well, after all, that's the depth of the sand bed in my multies tank.

Is this the GH or the KH measurement?
