I just spent over an hour ripping down rockwork trying to get some of the stupid lps pieces I got from you to fit.  8)

That yellow chalice...do you think it can stand bright lighting?

It can stand more light then most chalice but I would keep it out of direct light to keep it happy.

I am hoping to pick up a par meter next time I am home so I can tell you then exactly what par it was being kept in

Okay.  The only real good spot for it will be sort of in direct lighting.  I've got a green monti cap growing there now, it's doing fantastic actually, but I'd rather have this fella there.  Maybe I'll try to slowly acclimate.  It did fine on the frag shelf since I got it, but that's off to the side a bit...

Unbelievable pieces and photos!  Amazing stuff.  :drool:  I don't even want to know the price tag of those pieces.

Looks great man, must feel good to get home and see all is well with the fish

How do you get such consistent polyp extension?  I seem only able to get mine to really freak out when I stir the sand up.  I'm wondering if my night feeding is making them more dormant in the day. 

Nice pics BTW, but really, you already know that
