What light do u have those ric's under? If they're already used to at least a 250w mh, I'll be interseted in them.

It is under 4-54w T5 HO. If you put them under 250 MH right away, I think it will definitively make them uncomfortable. I have 400w MH on the left side of the tank (for my clam and SPS) and T5-HO for LPS and softy. The ric used to be in the middle but they not quite happy so I move them to T5 side. They are quite happy now.

What do u think they'd think about being at the bottom, corner of the tank? Here's a shot of my liitle jewel.

That should be OK. You can put it on the sand and right side of the tank. Then you can move it later when it get used to the light. I am waiting for the first guy that PM me. He has not making decision yet. If he doesnot wat it, you can have it.

Just let me know. I'll take it. Maybe both. What kind of conditions does the sun coral like?

Sun coral do not need strong light. You need to feed them like brine shrimp or any small pieces seafood.

Here is good read for sun coral

I had a sun coral once and loved it. except for feeding it that is. they are quite different and eye catching tho if you have time to care for one properly. Bump for some nice deals.

I'l be interested in it if, once again, you think it'll be ok under the 250. How about flow? My tank has a lot of it.

If you put sun coral on the sand and close to the cave, there should be no problem. The sun coral require medium to high water flow. What area of Chattanooga do you live? If not to far from me, I might can stop by and check out the tank.

I live about ten minutes off of the first Cleveland exit. If you're familiar with Dalton Pike, I live in the first subdivision past the national guard armory on the right.
