i just bought a 4" purple monster colony and i was wondering where to place it in the aquarium. is it a deeper water acro or should it be up top? thanks brandon
got pics By law any post with purple monster in the thread title must include pics, just lookin after ya man!
introduce it like any other coral and once it is acclimated move it to where you want it. reletively high light (atleast the pieces I have seen were kept in strong lighting).
I have mine up top about 12in from a 400 MH. And frags on the bottom of a 31T tank. You need to place it lower if it came from higher MH than you have and slowly move it up in a few weeks.
have mine in the bottom of my tank. It has good color and good growth there. So it would be 17'' under water, directly under a 250watt DE 14k phoenix in a ROIII reflector, my water is extremely clear.
i dont have a very good digital camera. the color comes out way lighter than it actually is. it came from a tank under about 8 inches of water w/ 400w halide i have it under 175 right now til i finish my cube then it will go under 250 de. i also thought it looked like a deep water so thats why i asked.
