Gsp and button polyp help please

[nightfire]

hey guys my button polyps are looking ok and my Gsp though only has a few heads out of a possible 50 or so iim guessing,i think it might still be acclimating to the water in my tank,im gonna move it though cause i think it might be getting too much current where it is,anyways ya guys can tell me what does good for ya as far as food,hight in tank,water flow etc? i know i can look it up in threads but i rather as the guys that own these and such....thanks so much guys

Mario, A quick tip on adding new corals. start them off a bit low and way 3-4 days. if they open up but not good enough, then move them a little higher every few days to find teh sweet spot. I had a pocilipora i got from bill that at first wanted to be down low, but now it has been moved up higher I finally got the current and light sweet spot and it is finally polyped out good. a stylopora I got was happy from the get go. for gsp and others, give them a gentle flow across the top and they will do well. mine liked mid to high under my old tank with 440 vho's
