New Corals Coming!!!

[lbannie]

I have 2 different mushrooms coming and a kenya tree. I was wondering what the best placement would be (for light) high low or medium? What about flow? My other question.....I have a pulsing xenia which is doing great, already split and a new one is forming, the problem is my Condy anemone moved over slightly and now sometimes its tentacles touch the xenia. Will this hurt the xenia? How do I go about moving them? Thanks guys! This site is so helpful

Mushrooms can go anywhere bottom to middle in medium flow. Kenya can go into the same situation you have the Xenia. The nem will damage the Xenia.

Condy nems seem to love moving around more than other nems IMO. Man just imagine if your yard bushes could move around like coral! That would be just too freaky!

Also consider the crazy growth of the Kenya. Mine was a tiny frag switched from one tank to another and it came off the rock where I had to so I glued it down, now it is huge and not where I would want it for permanent placement. It hides alot of my other corals!

Good to know... I picked the Kenya Tree mainly because of its beginner rating, I'm new with the corals!! I like the way it looks too...

Oh and don't worry about he Xenia, it will move if it dosn't like the area. If you turn the rock the Xenia is on to it's side the Xenia will climb up and spread as it goes making lots of baby xenia.
