Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
At that point did you also just put on the pajama pants and give in to the crazy?

More importantly, did you get a TV - we got dodger games to watch!
He totally went overalls, one shoulder undone, no undershirt, and Crocs with mismatched socks.
 
This mushroom rock that I bought that I was lucky enough to have an extra coral, I had to separate them a little

it looked like this

Take that torch a little higher up now. Make sure it gets some gentle flow enough to keep the tentacles from drooping. They can handle some light but those darker varieties tend to prefer slightly lower light than the bright yellows and greens. I'd go probably 3-4" off the sand bed in an area that gets good random flow - it'll make the tentacles dance more.

Question on the difference between replying to a post and using the +Quote feature. I can’t see the difference really. Also, I can’t figure out how to use the Quote feature once I saved it. I looked throughout R2R site for a dedicated Forum about posting in general- seems to be all over the place. But I could just be missing what’s right in front of my face!

Guess it’s time for some green circles.
