Sigh. I was presented this this morning, at the cave of wonders. It’s not soft and squishy now.

I still propped it up in the rock. Thanks guys, for returning a possible dead coral. I squirted some a+b close to it hopefully a polyp or two is still alive

It might pull through could just be REALLLY mad right now. Give it time and keep an eye on it.

Ooo ooo big thing to take into account when doing the stand build!!! I can't believe I forgot about this, Miracles insists on a styrofoam pad between the tank and the stand (Anywhere between 1/2-1" thick, mine under my tank is 1") All I did with mine was take the trim up to cover it but I planned for it from the beginning. If you're trimming the stand out yourself it shouldn't be a big deal but I just wanted to let you know now instead of being surprised about it later.

I already assumed so.

You think if I get her a tiny male, she'd be ok if there is some rough foreplay?

So happy mine finally got together after five months. The female has been trying to get him into to her anemone the whole time. Funny the little male went right to the clone after the split.

Maybe glue it to a plug or rock then leave it be?

Good morning all...hope your Saturday is great. Lots of snow around us as a blizzard blew in yesterday morning. No snow in town though because we are at only 700'-800' elevation in town.

MIne is sitting on a 1/2" rubber stall mat. I just can't get our old LFS display tank out on my mind. They had styrofoam under theirs, but most of the weight was at the back of the tank. Over a couple of year's time, the tank ended up leaning backward as it sunk into the styrofoam. Very noticeable too. So when I saw SPSPirate use the stall mat from Farm Supply on his 150, that is what I went with as well.
