    I just ordered my first LPS's. A multihead Pink-tipped Frogspawn and a Green Wall Frogspawn. Get here tomorrow at around 1030 and I'm really excited. Any tips with Frogspawn? I've tried to read as much as I can on them, but I'm sure there are some things people here could tell me about how they care for theirs that will help out. I've wanted some for a looooong time and I'm really happy I'm finally getting some.

    You place them on the substrate correct? In moderate flow? I know some LPS you aren't supposed to place on rockwork because they expand and contract but I'm not to sure with these. Thanks in advance :)

    Congrats!! You will love them! My frogspawn is my favorite. Yes, place on the substrate in moderate flow. That's about all there is to it! Some people feed theirs, some people don't. Mine won't take food.

    Can't wait to see pics!!

    Thanks guys. I got em from Inland Aquatics for 75 total. One of them is one head and the other is 2 with a 3rd being formed. 25 a head, but they told me that theyd knock some off the more heads I got, so a 6 head frogspawn would be like 115 instead of 150. My wife would just have a cow if I got more than that.

    The only LFS here that has any sort of nice LPS and SPS closed 2 weeks ago so that sucked.

    Oh, I took some better pics of the rest of my tank too that I'll try to post after work today. The tank is finally doing great. Proper levels of everything so I'm happy.
