I ordered a selection of frags from ReeferMadness to get my tank going ... very impressed. Even called to say they couldn't ship to my door because of heat .. but I chose to pickup at the fed-ex depot in Malden.
Most of them I know need to be right under the MHs .. there are several different acropora frags, not sure about the encrusting gorgonia - but put it in bright light. Put shroms near bottom around ledges, but not totally dark.
There is a bright green rock encrusted with very very small hard polyps - don't know where to put it .. assume it needs medium light, so put it towards the middle.
Other photographs are attached, some not so great (working on photo skills!) Keep looking through books, internet .. but not sure where I should place these.
Kept the tank dark for the majority of the day and put actinics on around 3pm. Put MHs on about 1 hour ago .. and so of the acropora seem to have open pores .. one even has the tiniest things sticking out. I assume this is good.
Added 2tsp of DT's reef blend and the candy cane has gone crazy!!
Also put in a power sweep pump at 270gph .. this brings the gph to about 1600 or there abouts.
Any ideas?
