Xenia and cloves are supposed to be fairly hearty and also possible plagues.

I've got some firework cloves in the nano, guess we will see just what they do.

I really appreciate this video. You’re more approachable than the guys with reef shops and thousands of species, and you’ve given me some direction for my nano tank.

Totally agree. When you have an easier coral to start and it's growing it keep you excited and keep you excited about doing maintenance and you end up with good habits and good husbandry that driven by that excitement and confidence.

Thanks man, I was in full panic mode since I'm a rookie at this with no previous experience. My toadstool was great the first day I introduced it to the tank but noticed that on the next day as the day went by it began to close and didn't know why.

My first order of coral for my new tank came in cold due to slow delivery...everything but one coral was DOA. Even the Green Star Polyps didn't survive. But... the candy cane coral came back from a small sliver of tissue about 2 mm x 5 mm. Now it's fat, happy and splitting. It's a very hardy LPS coral for beginners that doesn't grow so fast it becomes obnoxious. Nice valentini puffer fish btw, I love them.

Awesome. Love the warnings! 100% no difference between "weeds" and flowers. My BTA did the same thing to some of my zoas. Luckily the zoas were still on the lightly glued plug and I just move them.

Put a few coral in my first tank including a ricordea... Everything died day 2 with the exception of the shroom. Turns out my salinity was 1.036 lol... ooops. The shroom was un-phased. I got my salinity back to normal and learned a good lesson. Reefing is a challenging but rewarding hobby

Cool! I think I’m gonna start my tank with softies before moving onto LPS and if everything goes well a couple frags of easy SPS. Please follow up with videos on LPS and SPS!

Love that Puffer too :( but always worried about it munching corals and shrimp.

I plan to start with Mushroom Corals (including a Florida Ricordea) and some simple Leathers!

If you have the right lighting, your pink cabbage corals will turn green. I had a 70 gal that became filled with the pink. I decided to cut it off the rock and exchanged those for other corals. What was left on the rock grew back green. During that time I upgraded my lighting from t5’s to T5’s with AI primes LED’s. My thought is that as a wounded leather coral began to repair itself, it was able to absorb the algae that makes the green pigment, and now it grows inside the corals. My understanding is that’s how those corals get their coloration. It’s algae growing inside the coral. The green and pink look amazing together.

Will any of these live in a brackish tank of 1.010?

When toad stool close for longer periods they’re basically molting as they grow

My rhodactis mushrooms reproduce like aptasia

It’s probably just molting or getting ready to molt when they close up for a while.
