hey, you have an awesome collection on your hands and seem to be doing an incredible job keeping them happy. On your fruit loops and my clementines, do you keep them in higher or lower lighting? Thanks and keep the updated pics coming.
 
my fruit loops coming along... a couple more polyps seemed to have formed...

I love love love your Rastas! I hope mine grow like yours! We started out with 5 on a frag a couple days ago.

All of your zoas are awesome!
 
Thank you... They never all look good at the same time though... It's always someone or two that jus isn't happy... I'm gonna be getting a 120 soon hopefully so they won be getting as much par and flow which I really feel has caused issues with my zoas here and there since last December when I switched to this more shallow display... Plus the height will allow me to accentuate the columns more so and crest a more full, "temple" style look... But more so, the zoas and palys will get less par and flow... I know for certain some don't like the high light, where as my sps love it... This display doesn't offer a good mix due to its depth...

Random and detailed response lol, but I'm jus sitting here looking and thinking about it now...

it's really too bad I can't get everyone looking good all the time, lol...

I did a dip on a frag of AOG to get the algae off of it....the palys didnt like it what so ever took them about a week to open again,but their fine now...so just be aware that they may act weird for a little
 
Some new ones I got today... Nice and fat at the moment, they were still opening while I took this pic after dipping...

I'm pretty happy with the way they look in my tank... I really like the blue outer rim on the green body, and the blue tips at the ends of the green tips on a blue skirt... The body to me, reminds me of that of a people eater polyp... About 9 or 10 healthy polyps...

And to contribute to maybe some thoughts on the thread concerning polyp cost which has been at the top of this board recently, I got this peice for 20 bucks from a LFS ;)

My system is changing in the coming month... I have decided to go with a Deep Blue rimless 30g reef ready, shallow cube (95% sure) as my new zoa display... It will sit aside my new to me, 85g custom acrylic, eurobraced cube with external overflow, which will now be my sps only display... I'm most likely goin to go with a single 400 watt halide setup for this, and I have an Evolution 119 watt led light for my soon to be, zoa only display... I'm possibly leaning towards two separate systems if the zoas don't do as well as I would like them...

Got some Miami vice zoas as well, but I removed them from most of the mount they were on, so they were a little more upset, lol... I'm sure tomorrow they will look up to par...
