      I think what you did is pretty cool! How about a full tank shot?

      Bump! I got a question. What corals should I add next?!

      I was thinking of a torch. Never had one and really like the flowing look.

      Was also looking at an acan enchinata

      Or a dendro? Goniopora? Idk haha. Some full tank pics are up tell me what and where!

      Thanks for the input!

      I love my torch- super cool coral. Have you thought about zoas to start covering rocks? Looking good so far!

      Yes I would like to get some main corals down then ill go after zoas. With such a small tank I fear I will run out of room if the zoas take off before I get the corals I want:P I have my eye on a torch and will probably pick one up this weekend.. Should it be on an island of its own? I was thinking of putting it smack dab in the middle.

      As long as tenticles don't touch other corals- you should be fine.

      That's the one thing I'm afraid of. As the torch grows.. I don't want to lose some of the other corals. That's also the problem with small tanks I guess. I might just keep it isolated on the right side. Hopefully it will get the lighting it requires. But I think regular feelings shoul help.

      Just make a tall platform for it- the stalks on a torch will keep it above corals lower than it- if you buy one ( I recommend them highly) you will learn how it moves in current.

      Like on top of a pillar? Maybe make it with some small pieces of rock? I think that's what your trying to say right?
