Has it try spreading in your tank?
I have read that they bail out polyps and spread. Makes me nervous.

No, it hasn't.

It looks pretty fantastic!!! I love digis, looks like a nice piece! And they look like good sized frags, seascape?
Are you still using the UV sterilizer? Your water is like super crystal clear.

Thanks!

The digitata came from corals and more. The stag came from marine solutions.

Yes, I'm still using the UV.

Thank you! The barbed fittings are barbed to threaded. I found them at Lowe's I believe.

The orange digitata is doing much better. It was really rough looking and tore up when I got it. Not bad for $10!

Purple staghorn has some interesting green polyps at it's base! Hopefully the rest of it will do the same! That would be very cool!
