    They are still getting used to the tank, but they are already extending a lot. My only concern is that the pink tipped kind is in too much current. It gets blown enough that its always pushed to the right. The Green Wall head is in a better spot, it gets current to blow it once in a while but mostly its a gentler flow.


    Pink-Tipped Frogspawn

    You can tell its mostly getting current pushing it all to the right. I may move it to the same area the other is in.

    Green Wall

    It's in a better spot I think.

    Very nice corals and macro. I think moving it is the right thing.

    Thanks for the input.

    Here is the whole tank after all of my rearranging. That dark area off to the right is my little macro jungle.

    And here are the two after I moved them. Sorry for the repetition, I know it's nothing exciting

    Looks a lot better, but I'm considering moving it to one of the crevices midway up the tank below that leather at the top. I dont know though cause everywhere I've read says bottom of the tank for these. I just cant see em too well where they are.

    Tank looks awesome. Leave the corals for a couple of weeks to settle in and acclimate before moving them again.

    +1 on the move being beneficial to that frogspawn

    it looks much better in new location and will be able to inflate more fully due to less intense flow coming at it

    Thanks all = ) I turned off a powerhead to lower the flow hitting them and the pink tipped inflated even bigger than it was in those pictures. I guess they were still in too much so they look happy now. Now I just need to get some bubble coral and hammers. I like stuff that adds movement.

    Me too! Flowing corals are my favorite. You would like giant palms. Can't wait to see what you get next!
