well actually i just had my birds nest bleach out... I know that they are kind of picky with light and everything so i moved it to the middle but its still bleaching out and i only have a few tipps with polyps on it so i think im going to frag them off and try to save what i can. other then that i dont have any i just want to know if i need one when i start with more expensive corals i dont want to be wasting money

you dont need one yet. you would only need one if you where keeping a good selection of hard corals. id suggest you tried a few frags first, then when they do alright and you can get good growth, then it maybe time to look into one

The bleaching is more likely to be caused my insufficant lighting, what do you have?
