New Tank Pics

[greymach]

Here are some new pics of a tank i took and a little video.
Sorry about the music on the video i didnt know the camera was so sensitive and would pick it up so loudly.

 

[zanoshanox]

all of your LPS are way too close to each other they're going to sting and kill each other,

 

[greymach]

i was under the impression that hammers torches and frogspawns can all be right next to each other with no problems because they are all related

 

[reefkprz]

if they were going to hurt each other they would have started doing it the second they toutched, they are fine. just dont cram a fungia or a trumpet into that cluster.
good taste in music on the video by thje way.

I would still move them to be safe, have you seen the extended sweeper tentacles yet? I'm not sure but i think those are the ones they sting with.

 

[reefkprz]

the tentacles you see are the ones they sting with. they are all euphyllia's they wont sting each other. they will sting the heck out of other LPS though I had the unfortunate expirience of knocking a small frogspawn into the middle of my fungia the damage was quite severe and almost instant, and took several weeks to recover. corals dont wait to have a bad day and sting the second they contact what they deem competition nematocysts are fired. the same fungia had previously stung a mushroom into receeding awayfrom it, so the verdict is, Euphyllia stings harder than fungia, fungia beats mushroom, and euphyllia doesnt care about euphyllia (kinda like rock paper scissors when its written out like that.

they can sting with both although I have hammer and frogspawn and neither has developed sweeper tenticles. All Euphyllia (hammer,frogspawn and torch) can be placed right next to each other without harm. Looks like his placement is alright.

Thanks for all the comments and assuring me my placement of corals is ok. I have never see sweeper tenticles come from any of my corals. Ya megadeth kicks ass

Nice tank. Is it a 29?

 

[greymach]

Its actually a 50 i think. I thought it was a 55 but i posted the dimentions and someone said it was a 50

Sweepers come out at night. I would watch that GSP next to the maze brain, Mine was killed by a tiny patch of gsp. Nice tank.
