Hey Fed...looking good, I like your tank
...and for the Montipora try to put it on top near your lights with some medium flow....And IMO Orange Montipora Coral doesn't need MH to thrive, they will thrive under PC'S also.....
I mean people will say they need MH, but I also have one that actually was going to put on my tank that has MH, but I try to put under the PC'S, it seems like is growing in size since I got when it was the size of a penny.....

thanks, i have it pretty much as high as it can go, without touching other corals, does anyone know a way to get a small zoo frag to start spreading onto another rock, its so small that everythime i just place it on the rock it gets blown off, would ANY superglue gel work or does it hava to be a special aquarium brand?

I'd make a thread, and ask Oceana. He's the zoo expert.
