    Give it a dip in iodine to help it heal.

    Here's a picture of it in the tank after 2hrs of drip acclimation. It had only been in for roughly 10mins at this point. Not the best looking one ever, but give me some time it'll be just fine. Covered all my power heads with nylon stockings. Hopefully it does good, I noticed my clowns moved in to inspect but that's it. I hope soon it'll happen lol. I gave it a small peice of shrimp to encourage it to stay attached to the rock it came on, we'll see.

    Congrats Nightster, BTA have a habit of changing coloration somewhat so it make color up more for you, by regardless it looks nice. Attack of snails lol, ReefCleaners but any chance?
    Your clowns will be happy campers as soon as they figure it out I am sure.
