Yes it is - here is a photo which shows the full beauty of this fish. It is one of my "must have" fish. I missed one for a whole year a few years ago and the loss was great. I have found that one is enough - if there are several the others tend to get bullied and only one remains after a while - IMO. It is a shy fish that needs lots of caves. The example in the picture was chased away by my blue lip for a week before it toughed itself out and started showing itself. My tank is 80 G

I appreciate this, my friend. That was exactly what I was wondering. I only have space for one. Im glad to hear that should work just fine. I have some nice caves in preparation. Thanks @Lasse
 
John,

Very pretty coral. I do not have any experience with it but most montis have very similar care requirements. I'd say treat it like a digi.
Thanks Tom. That's the area I added it to (by the digis) so placement should be good then. I placed it a little higher than the other ones though, because I was thinking the higher par may help retain that bright pink color. It's very thin branched and kind of unique

This is the plan..
This is good, Cam.
Keeps you on track.
Honestly, if the tank looks good and you have no cyano, I'd start with a 10,see how everything reacts then bump it up if need be.
Puts less strain on everyone and if they're good, they'll be just as good with a 15 in a couple of days.
Just my opinion.
Keep salinity/temp the same as the tank.
 
Good evening John! Rest and relax!
Yessir it is that time. I did manage to get a water change done. I sadly traded in my green Cynarina to my lfs. To my surprise he gave me $120 in store credit for it. I only paid $60 for it so I was extremely happy. I used the money and got a Nero 3 wavemaker. I can say that I finally nailed the flow in my tank.
 
just as I suspected. they asked for more blood. still didn't want to come out. 😔
Sorry to hear this Paul. I hope this all turns around for you soon, my friend
 
Congratulations!
Thank you!
Thanks
