DeMartini's 14G BioCube

[sigmachris]

Morning DM...
Well I got my first mushroom colony and GSP colony last night for my stock 14g BioCube. When you place new corals in your tank do you have better luck placing them low in the tank and moving higher as needed or vice versa?
As always thanks in advance!!!

With those kinds of corals, it doesnt matter where you put them, they will do fine anywhere.

How long has the frogspawn hosted the clowns?
Do they make it angry?

[demartini]

I got the frogspawn about 2 weeks ago... they dove right in as soon as it opened! they don't bother it at all.

Here are some full tank shots that I took today. I traded in my foxcoral and my brain for pink zoos and neon tipped frogspawn. As you can see my Acans are pretty bleached, I thought the PCs were good enough for them until my halides, but they bleached really fast. I hope that they get their color back now that I have halides.

De,
Since I can't take my tank with me to Iraq, I'll have to have you send me pictures of yours. It will help inspire me for when I get back home and start adding more to my tank!

Congrats on the MHs! I can't imagine a gorgeous tank looking even better, but I guess you'll prove it's possible.
