So before i go full acro i decided to try a birdsnest. Got a good deal from the LFS and as I go to put him in the tank after acclimation and he fell off the frag plug. So. Out comes the super glue. And i figured since it was already getting roudy i would frag a branch. So i did and today is day 2 and has had full polyp extension! I am quite content with myself even tho this was such a simple task

i killed 5-6 before they finally stuck....

give them a month each. when you get their nuances, things get easier.
 
Thanks russ! Its a cheaper one i recieved a good deal on....want to get better at maintaining quality. Ive been eyeing up wwc auctions and i cant stop staring at the acros lol
