    Im wondering what kinda light and flow these guys like? I have a small frag in my 10 gallon with around 4 watts of light per gallon using pc and moderate flow. Wondering if i should move him to my 90 with 432 watts of t5 and moderate flow. Doesnt seem to be extending his little hair like polyps right now.

    How long has it been in there? Give it some time, at least a few days, to adjust to the tank. Most leathers don't need anything more than PC lighting and moderate flow, from what I've been told.

    Be patient...you have plenty of light.

    May need more flow.

    They take time getting adjusted to new environment.
