    Oh in the past I have learned the hard way on Ricordia.

    They are in a mod flow area and mostly shaded on a slope. I will be damned if I can not grow a Ricordia garden dang it.

    I had one nice orange garden under PC lighting, all others I have melted.

    Thanks!!!!:)

    I can not seem to shake the tank hobby habit no matter how hard I try.

    I get this preconceived notion of how I want things to look and play out, seems like it never works out that way, but in the end I am happy to see something new and different.

    MUST KEEP HANDS OUT OF TANK!!!!!

    Thank you Don.
    ;D
    I spotted the little buggers down in depression in the rocks. I will leave them there for a couple days to acclimate if they do not move up a little or expand more I will fish them out and put them in the rubble dish I provided for Goby.

    Yep,I had one missing for a month,when it did show back up,it lost a little color,but came right back after he got some light.the dish idea sounds like a great plan if it comes to that.

    I think I'm gonna go BB or <1" SB, I love how sleek it looks. What powerhead is that in the picture and whats your turnover rate?

    The power head is a Koralia #4, I am going to put another on the other side of the tank. I will have to recalculate that because I am not sure pumps in the back, I know they are Rios but I do not know the model. They are the Rios that came stock with the tank. Over 4 years later and they are still doing relatively well without breaking down once.

    Thank you for the compliment.

    Corals all did well considering they have been moved 2 twice in the last 6 months.

    It's been 1.5 weeks since this drastic move and they are still settling in. New bulb too so they have to acclimate to that as well.

    Many corals that I did not think could tolerate the abuse or had majano went to a friends tank.

    Your tank is the bomb, I would not change anything right now. Maybe next tank.

    Found another majano this am. :)
