These are some of the most gorgous tanks i have ever seen! I hope to accomplish this one day, i just got my first salt water tank and have nothing in it what so ever so far, i can only imagine how amazing it would feel to have a tank that some of u guys have!

I'm fairly new to caring for corals and zoanthids and had a couple questions regarding keeping zoos on the plugs...is it better to leave them on the plugs or should take them off of the plugs?

Another question i have for experienced reef keepers are the things i need to be careful with or QT advice when getting LPS corals or zoos. Reason im asking is because i lost all my fish to a bad outbreak of Ich and learned the hard way to QT the fish before putting them in the tanks. So if there is anything i should be doing prior to placing them in my tank the advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

One last question...What type of zoos are these anyone?

It would be best to dip everything you buy in an iodine based dip just to be safe. Zoa eating nudibranchs, among other pests like crabs and such, can hitchhike into your system on the frags.

As far as the plug, I think that is just preference. Some think its more natural to not use them... I just wait for them to grow over and you don't see it. Then you can cut around the plug and trade them if you want really easy.

They're growing on the front glass now and I can't reach them in the middle/bottom of the tank because of no front access (inwall system).

I was going to read this entire thread before posting but I got to this picture and just HAD to post. AMAZING!!!!! :spin1::spin1::spin1::fun4::rollface::thumbsup:

Again... Amazing... updated pics? I know this thread is quite old...
