| Re: Starting setup of 12 Ga. Nano 5/27 am Don't use the bioballs. They tend to get dirty & become nitrate generators. Use just the rock rubble.

| Re: Starting setup of 12 Ga. Nano 5/27 am actully u are wrong if u put in 1 or 2 bioballs and clean them every month they do just as good as live rock and it is always good to have a mixture of things |
