    Did all 3 of the clove polyp clusters come on plugs Baugherb? Mine started of on a huge rock and a tiny piece about like 1.5 by 1.5 inch piece broke off at my lfs and I snagged that up. They have grown so much as well since I bout the frag in April. DEEP blue.;D

    Yeh, they all 3 came on plugs.. They are growing like crazy.. I am redoing my tank on monday to make everything a high flow coral tank... Mostly sps's. Also trading my true perc for a austrailian black and white perc... Can't waite... Tired of trying to keep low and high flow corals in the same tank.. I'm ready for a change in my tank.... I've never had a problem with coraline. Usually starts growing well at about 3 months... And thanks for the comment lfndust, much appreciated....

    I wouldn't pay 250 bucs for a 70w light. I can get a 250w from tangster for about that much.... I will be doing a pendant over my future 20 long with 250w mh.. I want something cheap for my 5.5. and I can get a viper 70 for about 150.00..... PM tangster for pricing on lights...
