    What type of reef are you looking at doing, SPS,LPS, or mixed?

    personelly I like the mixed reefs better. I like the dominant look of the SPS, but like the movement of the LPS.

    I dont have any zoes at the moment. I have seen some that I like but not at the LFS. They will eventually slip up and have some I cant live without and they will be mine....LOL

    Sorry about the birdsnest. If all your paramaters are good and it is happy with the flow and lighting it should grow back fairly quickly

    yea i'm thinking it's happy. i don't know how to tell if its happy or not. i see the blue polyps moving around in the flow, the very tips are white but i think it came like that
