threw a towel over them so they are not getting blasted with light and set lights to 50%. what do you guys do for a acclimation to lights? couple hours? days?

DON'T FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE!!!!


Nothing.

I may have been doing it wrong coming up on 20 years but I always dip rinse and mount it where I want it, I don’t play with the light.

Same except minus the dip and rinse usually...

That reminds me of a saying that people with more experience in Cuba used to say, "do as I say and not as I do."

I have never light acclimated new coral. I just put them where there is proper light and flow for that specific coral. I’m not saying not to just I have never.

I've never acclimated them. I always put them directly in the sand bed for a day or two, and then I put them in their permanent spot. It's worked well for me. I don't believe corals are that sensitive to light changes. It just can't be from something like 100 to 450 par.

What are these? 3 giant worms, reef safe? Should I transfer them?

Luis... No 1. Rule is never touch worms in your tank with bare hands!! Anyways could you get a picture under water? Put them in a Tupperware with sw and take pics.

Dang, these pitho crabs grow fast! Got them not to long ago the size of a dime and they are now the size of a quarter. When they outgrow the tank I’ll have to get the crab traps from Deadly Catch to get them out.

Bristle worms can irritate your skin but fire worms, well its in their name!
