    I recently added 5 more different types of corals to my DT.

    UP to 25 now.

    Anyways, I have these 2 nice Ricordea frags, each are a different color, scheme, etc.

    ? is, right now I glued the small frags to a larger rock, and have it on the bottom.
    I took a pic, but I guess it was too big, it wouldn't upload.

    Do they need to be on the bottom- mine is finely CC?

    They seem to be doing fine after 3 days, just kinda appendages of the rock.

    Vertical faces on your rocks and also in the lower portion of the tank is good.

    i am finding it to be completely dependent on the ric..i have two in my tank currently, and one cannot get enough light (it continues to cup until i place it high in the tank as possible) and the other which shrivels in the same light.i have placed them near vertical faces as well (as 2in10 suggested)
