thank you. as for tips with soft coral besure and have good flow and set your skimmer to pull wet as possible.
my favorite softy would be the big green toadstool in the front of the tank.
as for chemical warfare iv had more trouble with the lps stinging the leathers. i did find out you have to keep the colt coral out of the same flow as the cabbage coral. even the sps seem to just grow around the leathers. i am having trouble keeping my mushrooms alive right now tho.

have you ever had to frag your softies? they all look so great and healthy! I would be interested in a piece of the finger leather to the right of your clam, behind the orange plate coral

NICE! I've always loved tanks packed with softies and am finally doing one as well. Hope it ends up looking half as nice as yours!
