yeah these pics dont really justify the cool colors.. its a stupid iphone im taking the pics with.. however once the tank is worthy of some real shots.. ill bring in a cam and use my n00b skills..
and fcatch, im trying .. haha.. im going to be picking up some new zoas this week and hopfully my pom pom..
then i gatta go on my RICORDA frenzy..
and of course i will be trimming down the frogspwn as it will be taking up a lot of my tank.. already is.. LOL
__
also 1 thing i have noticed is my zoas look amazing if there on the floor of the tank.. anything 25% and under is cool.. the top 75% of my tank makes my zoas look washed out..

25$ for each half of that.. it was nuts..
Hey i also got some putty to put on my frags and stick to rock but im hojestly scared to use it as i duno if its reef safe..
i got it from ace hardware.. ill have 2 post a picture of it for you guys ... as for now i have my frag plugs basically on the sand as i have a bulldozer in there knocking eveything over! grr.

I wouldn't use it. At the lfs they should see something very similar that is reef safe. I myself use plain old superglue gel.

haha thanks man.. dont worry your will be up and running soon!
and ----.. they told me that should be cool.. but ill go the fish store and try it out..
reason i dont use super glue gel is because all my rocks are stacked on top of one another and ic ant pull them out without taking out A LOT of the rocks.. with superglue gell.. the second it touches the water it dries instantly.. LOL.. so i needed that puddy ----.

No that is not true Ronnie. When the gel hits the water if immediatly forms a skin over it. That skin needs to be broken by twisting the frag against the rock it will be glued to and then held there for a minute or so. It works, have done it a lot with my frags.

i had a question about my mushroom section in the tank... with the RED and the BLUE being so close (and im assuming same species) i am not worried about them touching eachtoher and "stinging" eachother for one or the other to die.. but wut about the yellow mushroom with the bright yellow dots on it (btw what is that called) that is close to the blue mushroom.. since that is a different specie will that sting and try to kill the other mushroom?.. i also plan on throwing a wholet on of ricoridea in there and i plan on throwing it in that section as well.. if they were to touch/overlap will any damage be done?..
i just want to make sure i am arranging everything okay so that i dont run into any problems int he future.. all zoas are kept in 1 area.. mushrooms are in 1 area.. and im tryingt o keep them seperated like that.
