About the Cover
One of the greatest challenges in reefkeeping is knowing which fish and invertebrates can live together in harmony, and this challenge is only amplified in a nano setting. The 10-gallon nano reef on this month’s cover features a range of large-polyp stony corals, soft corals, and gorgonians. For more on this tank visit the TFH Extras blog at tfhmagazine.com, and to learn more about how to set up a perfect coral garden of your own, check out “Going Nano” from one of our expert reefkeepers, Bob Fenner (p. 50).

Tip of the Month:
Never rely on a single thermometer, hydrometer, test kit, or any other tool of measurement. All such devices can be out of calibration. By comparing two or more, you can be sure you are getting accurate readings.
