Thats going to be a nice looking tank, where R U getting the base rock from? I don't know to much about Torch Corals, I was thinking of a Frog Spawn for my tank, but not sure, don't want to stray to much from SPSs

I am getting my rock form Live Rock - Buy Live Rock For Sale At $3 Per Pound At Live Rock Ranch . They seemed to be the best priced. My bad on the coral name, trumpet coral is what it is, like candy cane. I have a frog spawn its a very nice coral. How is you new SPS frag doing?

I seen it in there (what kind?), it that your only piece? I want to get some more SPS, I only have a birds nest and grape monti cap. Both have shown good growth in the last couple weeks I have had them.

Its the only one I have in the tank, and really hasn't shown any growth yet. It wasn't a mounted coral at the LFS when I got it. The LFS owner mounted it on the plug the way you see it now, so it may have been upset when I brought it home and put it in my tank, I am just happy that it hasn't died in my tank, hoping the growth will come. We only have the one LFS in my area and he doesn't carry very many SPS corals and none of the nicer ones, just ugly ones like the one I got for my tank. We have one reefer in my area that has some of the nicer SPS corals in his tank, you know him, he post in LARC, Thatgrimguy, he has the 210g tank with the Algae Scrubber mounted on the top of the tank. I have sent him a PM in our local forum about getting a few frags from him, but no reply back. There is a very nice LFS, Coral Fever in Raceland La. that carries the sps corals that I want, but its a 2 1/2 hour drive from my house. Have another reefer about an hour's drive away from my house, who carries alot of the corals I want, the down side, very small frags. Where you would spend say $40 for a multi branched frag online or at Coral Fever, he will sell you just the stick for say $20. Guess I will be relegated to online shopping or long drives.

I understand. We have two local's with SW but neither really has SPS on hand full-time. The one I goto 99% of the time will get me anything I want so thats nice but its site unseen. I do not know anyone in my area with SW/Reef tanks. They offered to go in with me when I get my premium live rock and they would cover shipping and charge me 4.99 per pound. I guess thats not to bad as they get really nice primo live rock. I have 75#'s of base coming so once that is in and set-up I will order live rock from the local.
