I just got 4 more corals today, but they have been hard to super glue onto rocks. Right now, they are all just resting on the rock formation. What should I use?

looks like u are running out of space with the way that the rockwork is set up....ever think of switching it up a bit?

 

[gfk]

that anenome looks like its kinda close to those corals, that bad boy is gonna grow quickly

 

[cmondo]

Yeah, i agree, anenomes have a habit of doing that...lol

Yeah and when you pull it out it seems to spread it more.

New corals look great!

 

[TheCoralReef731]

Thanks everybody. Yes, the rockwork has been limiting the space that I have, but I am worried that if I change the rockwork, the anemone will move. If only I could keep the anemone rock in the same spot while moving the other rocks. If I have a less steep slope, maybe it will hold more corals.

 

[TheCoralReef731]

I figure I could also put some eggcrate in while I move the rocks around. Would it be okay to take the corals out of the water to move them into the sump, or should I keep them in the main tank on the right side?

 

[cmondo]

they will be fine with the move, how long u plan on keeping them in the sump, and what kind of lighting would u have down there?

 

[TheCoralReef731]

An hour or two. Not long. Just flourescent untill my flood light arrives in the mail.

 

[cmondo]

Yeah that will be fine, just wait till nightime, that way u don't have to worry about the light at all.

And just to make sure, you are getting the light, then moving the corals right??

 

[Ti]

nice tank

 

[TheCoralReef731]

Cmondo - Most likely I will get the light beforehand. It should come this weekend or next. The RBTA is getting big. I am trying to incorporate a way to isolate the RBTA from the corals so I don't have to worry as much.

Thanks Ti

 

[cmondo]

The only thing that I can say about isolating a rbta in a 20 gallon tank is goodluck.

 

[TheCoralReef731]

Well I guess I don't have much of a choice.

Anyways, it's a 25 :lol:

 

[cmondo]

I am confused then, cuz it says 20g on this thread, and in ur profile....

 

[TheCoralReef731]

Yeah, im gonna get it changed

 

[TheCoralReef731]

Okay, I changed around the aquascape. It isn't as interesting or original, but it does have lot's of nice features for my corals and RBTA. Here are some pics:

Some stuff I used for the reaquascaping. I had the corals, fish, and shrimp in the refugium. I had the rocks in the 10 gallon tank in the pic.

I'm sorry about this picture. It should be turned 90 degrees to the left. It shows how some rocks touch the back glass. Is this okay? Mostly just rubble touching, one or two bigger rocks.

 

[TheCoralReef731]

I'll get a FTS up when the sand settles.
