Question for Ken Uy

[DanConnor]

Hi Ken,
Love your reef! I'm always interested to hear how people cope with encrusting organisms, since I think they add a nice dimension to a tank. You have a lot of zooanthids- do you do anything to try to keep them away from sps? Would you add them again if you were starting over?

Thanks, Dan!

The zoanthids haven't really tried to encrust over the sps, but I do sometimes pull some polyps away with forceps.

Would you add them again if you were starting over?

Probably not... when they cover the base of the sps, they're keeping the sps themselves from encrusting onto the rocks.

Great tank, stunning tank!! Incredible work for a 29 keep it up. Seeing your setup gives me hope for my 180 thats in the works. I hope to acheive half of your success!
