    if you take a softball and add an inch around its about that big at the biggest Ive seen it so far. the flow there is low my power heads are higher in the tank. i didn't want to overpower it by pointing the head at it. i wasn't sure how much flow is good flow. if i point a k nano 425 in its direction what should i be looking for for adequate flow? the color on it is great. the tips of the tentacles are white but the rest is a bright green. i don't have a great cam so its hard to get an accurate representation. and any input on the food? i feed my fish frozen brine every 3 days (a small amount about a 1/4 cube) but i know that's not really what it would want.

    also i only have 2 power heads right now. i have one at the back of the tank and one at the front. if i have only one pointed at it i know it wont blow over or anything but will one direction of constant flow be bad for it?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    You definitately do not want it to move because of too much flow, and mod indirect, should be fine.

    Try feeding a small piece of raw seafood, such as table shrimp, scallops, fish. If it does not eat try again in a couple of days. Remember to remove any uneaten pieces.

    What color is the base ? And are there any bumps on the column. I can not say for sure what it is.

    the base meaning the foot? not saying base is the wrong term just want to be on the same page. its a pinkish reddish color and i didn't notice any bumps on it. i wish i could angle my nanos but the suction cup magnets don't leave much room for angle adjustments. i knew i should have ordered 3 lol
