Moved the old anemone to the front hopefully the clownfish will make it happy and it will stay where I can see it. And for now the rainbow seems to like the little rock I set it on this morning. It was up on the glass when I woke up but I moved it down again.



Wow - they instantly went to it! That is so rare Amanda! My pair never did - know their getting their own Nem Nano tank to hopefully live in.

One thing though, you can’t keep moving it - it will settle where it wants. Caveat to that is obviously if it moves to powerhead.

Checked on them before laying down and some they were starting to show their colors I went ahead and took pictures. I will get more tomorrow when they are more settled in.
Considering they just arrived and were dipped, they are looking really great Amanda. You’ve got some real stunner’s there! Once you place them in the DT and they’ve had a week to fully settle in; it’s time for some DT/FDT photos so we can see what you see when you relax on the couch with the pups at the end of the day!

Congrats on a great haul that looks to be healthy and what you actually asked for!

I just moved it the one time in hopes that the new lights would entice it to stay in the front.

Seems I am also addicted to the green that most of them have I didn't even realize it when I was buying them during the auction. Might need to do another auction to get more colors... ;) :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: :face-with-tears-of-joy:
Most of my tank is green - I had to practically tie my hands together at TSA and WWC not to buy more - ok, I actually did! But they were special ones - lol.

I asked Blaine to help me diversify- hello my name is Jen and I’m addicted to Green…

As I was adding coral I reached a point when I realized I was maxed out on green. It is easy to do because so many corals are green. I spent the rest of my time buying anything but green. I was always on the lookout for blues and yellows. I’d say about one third of my corals are green, I love them, just wanted more diversity of colors.

Wow Wow Wow, love the rock scape Amanda! I’ve never had this problem before with a YouTube video but I can’t get it to play. Anyone else having a problem?
Played fine for me!

Nice diverse collection- should be really fun to design the different areas of rock. Makes such a difference when you have a lot of real estate to work with!

Enjoy the process and creativity Amanda - this hobby really provides a lot of outlets for enjoyment

I leave it to the experts to better identify a possible name of a coral.

I really need a close up picture of each. Oh, I got it to play, must have been a glitch. Once identified go to Tidal Gardens website, Than gives detailed information on care of every one. I used it many times, very helpful!

I can get you a close up tomorrow of each one as I'm already laying down.
