    I know the feeling. I'd like to suprise my wife one day with an ORA red goniopora but haven't figured it out yet.

    So my nem came in a day early. I set it up with Coral Collection to ship Tuesday to arrive Wednesday. Made sure someone was covering the store so I could be home to accept it and acclimate it. No one was home Tuesday and when I got home Tuesday night I found a box on my front door. This is the pic when I was dripping it.

    I dripped it for an hour and then added it to the tank. I found a small cove where I thought it would be same from current and it grabbed hold pretty quickly. It's about 2" in dia. I tried to get some pictures today but just couldn't get a very good one. Here's what it looked like this afternoon.
