Could red montipora capricornis (is that right?) do well in this tank?

Could bird's nest coral?

They do well in my 110g - and are at ~3wpg - my 3g runs at ~6wpg...

... just another deep thought...


:smokin:

I had two frags of monti caps die in my 10 with a 96 watt aqualight. Could have been my fault though. Either during acclimation or glueing them to a rock. They both looked ok for a week then started to slowly bleach and die. I can't honestly say it was the lighting though. The other corals I added at the same time are doing fine however.

I'll let you know about the birds nest just as soon as I find a frag of some.

Tank looks nice btw.

Thanks for the kind words, stepheninva!
I'll hold off on adding the capricornis then...
I have a frag of bird's nest in my 110 that I thought was a goner a few weeks ago (when I got it), but has now started to flourish - I may try it out in my 3gal here in awhile...
