1. what SG does your tank need to be sitting at to support live rock??? i really want some for my GSP tank and am sitting at about 1.008. i know thats not high enough, but am trying to ballpark when i will be able to house it, so i can budget it in
2. Plants. i was wondering what plants are easy and beautiful for my planted tank. so far i have hi-grow, and tomorrow am getting a small patch of hair grass. that brings me to the next part of my question. How long does it take hair grass to grow??? im very aware that it depends on so many factors, such as lighting, substrate, fertilizer, Co2, and so on. but i was just wondering if it will cover a nice chunk of the floor of my tank in the next few months, or years. i have never grown aquatic grass.
thanks in advance
Edit:
Both of my GSPs have been fed crushed snails for the first time this week. this is the first time either of them have actually EATEN snail shell. they have developed a little red mark on the rim of their mouth each. one has it top lip in the middle and one bottom lip on the side. im just wondering if this is normal. it looks as though they got a tiny little cut on their lips. i have fed them soft food since as an attempt at letting the heal. i have pictures of it waiting to be uploaded. ill do that in a little bit. thanks
