thanks all,

The coral we selected to put in the tank don't mind the SH . Even the large sinularia tree doesn't mind them hitching to it . The mushrooms , Ric, And Zoas never get touched . And the Zoas are starting to spread across the tops of the rock already . So That should be a sign of happy & healthy.

I just blow them off with a turkey baster once a week with cleaning the tank. I add phyto, and rot.

Beautiful tank. I love the sponges and gorgs, (and the ponies of course). Where did you get the sponges and gorgs?).

Very beautiful tank! Love the color and variety of coral! I also love corner tanks!

I have one recommendation...push that rock with the green star polyps away from the others so that it cant spread to them. Otherwise they will grow all over the place and can be a pain to remove.
