Joe Yaiullo of the Long Island Aquarium correctly said reef-keeping is a chess game you'll never win. Perhaps you're already doing this - I glue new frags to a small piece of rock and then watch them like a hawk. If something seems amiss, I can easily move them. Once they have adjusted and are starting to grow, I'll glue them in a spot with similar lighting conditions. Like this:I’m a member of the Facebook page, but not an actual member. I’ll have to check on what it tales to become a member. I honestly just put it like that because when I glued it parallel to the floor it wouldn’t hold to the glue. And about the 5th try I did it like that just to see if it was able to stick to the glue at all and it stayed. It looked beautiful up until about 2 weeks ago and was even growing. I also have a Christmas tree monti and a Superman monti. Neither are looking particularly wonderful. As of this past week either. So the lower par may be why the red monti started looking bad first, but I feel like there’s something else going on too, since the others aren’t looking as good either. But I may be wrong.
