It sounds like your water is good, I just ask on here and try to get good pics and hit google, I use live phyto, a liquid food and powder broadcast fed, it will be interesting to see what it is.

I treat my tank with Phyto everyday, about 30 ml., I culture nano right now. Planning to start culturing tet and pods next.It sounds like your water is good, I just ask on here and try to get good pics and hit google, I use live phyto, a liquid food and powder broadcast fed, it will be interesting to see what it is.
What kind of liquid and powder food do you use?

Water flow?
Placement?

These soft corals are not my niche, but talking to different people through the years, many say good flow and keep an eye on strontium. Lighting I noticed I had some one time in my sump, ready to send off to a client and I have no lights in there but the Sun shine in there a little bit, very little and they still open up, even at night they opened up without lights. Just don't have your lighting bright, keep low to start . One thing I know any photosynthetic corals you're acclimating into any tank you have to have the lighting very low to start. That is one of the basics everyone should know in Reef keeping. I have a nano tank and the lighting I have , so when you get new photosynthetic corals there is a program in my lighting that will keep the lights low to acclimate the coral to the new light.
Can dip them in Bayer before adding them to my tank?

Here's one for sale, Unique Corals
Received my stereonephthya and as a freebie a purple litophyton. Drip acclimated them then put into my sump till white lights go out. The stereonephthya looks great. Litophyton is a little drawer up. I'll put them into my DP either tonight or in the morning.
When I opened the bags I didn't smell any odors.

Me too. Placed them in the DP last night. That way besides being in the sump, now in the DP they had all night to adjust before lights come on.Nice, can't wait to see them.
Have to say the guy I bought it from was fantastic. He was patient with me with all my questions and answered them in a timely manner.
