I've never had one move... Once they attach they ate pretty anchored. I wouldn't move them if they are already attached cause they become a bit of a pain to find a new place where they won't fall or get knocked off the rock before they attach
Well, zoas come in colony's of 10-20 heads and they slowly spread, so I keep mine on rock by themselves. I have heard ricordias will bother corals also so I keep them around the edges of my rocks. They don't have a huge bioload. So a couple colonies of zoas and 4 or 5 ricordias. Space the...
Thanks, I checked the tank of the lfs I got the coral from and he had a few here and there in his tank and none of the corals seemed to be negatively affected.hopefully they stay small, happy, and out of trouble.
I added all my zoas and than the ricordias, looking back I would FO the ricordias first only because when they get ticked they put a decent amount of slime out, not any trouble unless it lands on another coral. Than I'd imagine it would cause trouble. Having carbon or something like chemi pure...
Nice ID, thankyou. Online everyone had a diffrent experience with them... Anybody have problems with them?? Didn't seem to bother my zoas and it was right against 5 of them
Yes both corals, they are actually my two favorite corals. Seachem Fuel is a nutritional supliment and growth accelerant, I've had allot of succes with it. Just give them good lighting and moderate flow and they will do fine. I actualy have two ricordias splitting now
I dont feed mine and they look great, they have asymbiotic bacteria that they live off of. that being said SOME people do, because they have tiny mouths... I just add FUEL to keep them growing nicely and leave them alone.

SO, a light brown base, round, with a single mouth in the center. clear...
+1 on the fish eating eachother. once dead he is just free game. the only part you will find is a TINY back bone, but most of the time it gets burried or sucked into the filter. sorry buddy.
UPDATE
the few brown spots over the course of four hours became a giat membrane of slime across the top. i lightly blew it off with a baster and the coral looks super healthy, no polyps yet tho!
