I purchased the large piece of live rock in the centre of my aquarium from a local guy as he was moving and I really wanted a nem.
The nem and polyps are doing great however I am wondering if this rock is too large for my tank. This is my first foray into saltwater and I want to ensure I leave my clowns enough room to swim around. Cutting it will be challenging based on all the button polyps and location of the nem. So if it’s too large I will have to move the whole piece.
This is the only piece of live rock in the tank, the rest was Marco dry rock which I cycled. All the coral and the nem are doing great and I just epoxied a birds of Paradise frag to the rock as well. I am looking for some input from other reefers to make sure I don’t have too much rock in there.
