Might want to move the monti down to let it light adjust then move it back up there over the span of a week. Don't want to light shock it. Nice corals though!

thanks Bribo. Done

I just know I've made that mistake before haha.

no prob. I took the leap on sps and I know I'll need advice. I hand feed my acan today and looks a lot better. They guy at CTE wasn't too helpful and basically said they won't work in a tank unless it's like 65 degrees. I thought and know otherwise and will continue to get this thing to strive. Other than that good stuff from there as always!

Haha that's weird that he said that. Odd. Glad the acan perked up! That is a nice colored monti though, I'm jealous!

anything special I need to do with it besides light acclimation?

 

[bribo12]

Nope Just a good amount of light and flow and it should do great.

Bribo my zoas are extended about an inch. Move them closer to the light?

 

[bribo12]

Idk a picture might help. But maybe a little

 

[05spooln]

Here I forgot to attach

 

[bribo12]

Yeah I'd move them up and aee

moved them up about another five inches closer. I'll keep you updated on how they look when I get home

Did is little rearranging tonight and looks as though everything likes where it's at. My zoas are my only concerns but I've heard it may take a couple of days for them to settle. Open for any suggestions

Here is a pic of how we look currently

how fast will a Monti grow and how do I tell if it's happy?

Look for tiny little polyps on it. They can be really hard to see. Growth is hard to say because my tank grows montis slower than molasses. However they are usually a pretty quick growing sps.

almost like the bumps on a tongue right? I see them just didn't know if I'm supposed to see anything else. If they aren't showing then it's unhappy right?

sweet. Well man I finally successfully fed my acan last night and it was awesome! The tentacles came out a bit and gobbled the brine up. Hope I can train it on a schedule and get this baby growing!
