    I have over 20 zoa/palys but a few months ago I got some magician paly's. I have moved them into several different spots, and yet they dont seem to be thriving. Was wondering what the typical (hot spot) for theese are that people have found?

    I have my palys kind of all over my tank and they seem fine. I have really low flow though since I only have softies and that is what they like.

    Edit: You might want to test your ALK and your salinity as well. Also, how strong is your lighting?

    I have mine about half way up in my tank and they seem to love it there. I have mine under LED lighting though so it depends on the kind of light you have.
