    You got some really nice movement in there. For some reason, with me, my corals don't seem to do very well with movement. My xenia and GSP both close up whenever they get too much movement.
    Really nice work> you're tank looks great.

    Nice tank :)

    One quick question how long have you had the Torch, often if there is a lot of flow it can cause the flesh to be pulled away from the skeleton.

    Just thought I would mention it as if it is a new addition I would hate for you to lose it.

    Anyway keep up the good work :)

    ive had the torch going on one year. the flow does not seem to extreme over it. it opens fully which tells me it is happy. they can close completely up if they are unhappy. also i have the corals on the left part of my tank strategically placed as that galaxia coral on the sand on the left constanty tries to sting EVERYTHING. the flow over that coral is from right to left which keeps the stinging tentacles off the torch...and the gsp to the left of the galaxia is just out of its reach. the galaxia did kill one of my mushrooms :( it is a mean coral
