Post by DarkStorm »

currently i am looking to add to my ever growing population of corals at the moment i have 12 or more aggressive lps and i enjoy them very much, what i am looking to do is add some zoa's/ palys to my rockwork and hoping for some that wont wage even more wars then what i currently have.. lol also they have to be flexible with my mushrooms and clams
what i have atm :

Z/Ps aren't affected by LPS as far as I can tell.

My GSPs did pick at them. Sharpnose seem to leave them alone. I'm gonna work on some macro pics of them soon. ;)

well they didn't last long i am thinking hermits are eating them sad, there goes near 300$
i wonder if in the future i cant frag em to my overflow glass?.(somewhere out of crab reach)
also i noticed my newest elegance coral was eating the carcass of a peppermint shrimp not sure if it was the molted remains or what but it certainly wasn't letting go lol
