placement

Hey guys so I bought a random pack from a local reef store which I now realize wasn’t a good idea for me cause this is my first reef tank, I would like help identifying the corals an maybe placement tips it would be much appreciated!!!

I just thought I would start a thread to see what everyone is doing as far as care for Zoas/Palys, and see what others have found they like best. Please vote and share your comments below. I have always heard Zoas love MH but have never tried them under that type of lighting.

Does anyone have some unique tank pics they want to share? One of my goals is to one day have either a kitchen island aquarium or an aquarium in the wall as a "divider wall" between kitchen/dining room/living room or something of that nature. Also super into Cylinder Tanks! I'd love to see your...

For example I have several torches with one or two heads each. But all fragged from different colonies. Will they sting each other if I place them close enough that they can brush against each other?

This might be a stupid question but how do people place coral on their sand bed without it being knocked over constantly by fish or by the flow? Especially for smaller frags.

Hi all, So I have an orange mushroom. Nothing fancy, just a $10 frag, the thing is between the size of a nickel and a quarter... I've had it for over a month - it's not growing and it's not shrinking... it just seems to "be". :) The tank is a 5x2x2. The mushroom is placed near the...

I have only ever had internal in sump skimmers before. There was an optimum height for placement in the sump. I have started a new tank with an external skimmer. How do I control the lowest level of the water in it? Do I control it with reference to the level of the water in the sump? For...

Hi all, So I have 4 frags, now what do I do with them? :) They are still new to my tank, only a couple of weeks old, so I realize the first thing I do is wait... but what is the path to the endgame of permanently placing them? I have a Zoa, Duncan coral, Candy cane coral, and a mushroom...

I have a titanium grounding probe that I always placed in my sump. Seeing as I am rebooting my 125 gal, I am wondering where everyone places their probes. My reasoning for placing the grounding probe in the sump is my hands are mostly in the sump during maintenance and so long as the main pump...

Just wanted to know what everyone's opinion was on the proper placement for these corals, right now the two polyp frag I have is on a rack and seems to be okay about mid level in my tank but it's sort of hard to tell due to the nature of this coral what it looks like when its happy and what it...

I went to an aquarium store in the corner of the street and it had some bargain prices. 3 medium-sized corals had a cheap price. So I bought it, one of them is a montipora and I think it is a Montipora Spongodes. Never really had one of these, what type of monti are they? encrusting? plating? I...

Hi everyone, I am currently trying to determine the worth of these zoas/paly frags and its is difficult finding accurate info w all of the exotic names and such and sometimes they look different from google searches. Also hard to determine how accurate the pictures considering their heavy...
