The seventh picture down looks like the encrusting monti that we broke of for my zebra eel's lookout hole. Unless it's the white cap with the blue polyps?

I think you are right, do you think I should move it? They all kinda look the same to me right now lol.

Well, I think the encrusting monti will divide and conquer as it did to a few of my other corals. I would move it down maybe? Seems it likes to generally grow in a downward direction in my tank.

nothing fantastic but is definitely getting better each day.
OK, remember that polyp extension does not always mean that the coral is happy guys. it may take 2-3 months before you know you have a happy animal.

The controller allows me to dim the LED's, so I will start out at like 30% and over the next few months work my way up. Thank you for the heads up...
OK, I have absolutely no idea what it will look like when they are full tilt, but when I change lites, I usually go a week at a time and see how things are lookin and then go from there. JMHO

I do not.
I have the set, if you head up in February, you are welcome to take a look. You have to kinda read between the lines, but they work.

More updates:
Now I am waiting for the controller to come in tomorrow, hopefully the weather doesn't delay it. I am super excited!
