hey guys i know there isnt much if any activity in the marine part of this forum (especially when it comes to no puffers) but ill ask anyways since i love this forum.\
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 :
green hammer coral
metallic hammer coral
white flame torch
metallic green torch
aussie gold torch
green frog spawn
white frog spawn
red and white plate coral
green bubble coral
white bubble coral
i forget what else but any advice on zoas/ palys would be excellent
tank size 220 gall with 180 gall sump/refuge

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

I would love to see pics of your pieces :) The puffers don't eat them?

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

You absolutely can glue them to your overflow.
