    I'm relatively new to coral. I'm shooting for a reef tank with fish. I have a year old 75g running that has no coral, but an anemone and feather dusters, along with my fish.

    I have someone giving me this:

    Green Goniopora
    Duncan Whisker
    Some green shrooms


    Do I need to dip any of these before adding them to my tank? How do you place them on rocks.. do they root themselves? Any quirks of these species I should be aware of?

    Thanks!

    I would do a Bayer dip (google search)... Most use super glue gel to glue them...
