What is the orange twiggy thing in the bottom center?

 

[goma]

It's an orange tree gorgonian.

 

[Oxylebius]

I thought maybe that was the case... I just added a gorgonian on Friday. It seems most are placed on the bottom of the tanks... I'm thinking I should move mine lower also.

 

[goma]

They are non photosynthetic so light doesn't matter.

 

[Oxylebius]

Well, based on my research mine is a photosynthetic gorgonian (Pseudoterogorgia elisabethi), so maybe I will leave it where it is, mid-range in the tank and see how it does.

Thanks for the quick response.

Greg, I seem to have lost a lot of thread subscriptions when we had the site "crash" a while ago, and your thread was lost so I didn't see these updates until today.....

Tank is looking fantastic mate, great colourful and healthy corals! Am really impressed with the placements of the corals, something I always struggle with myself.

Impressive!

It looks really cool, so much nicer than a traditional frag rack. Wish it was available here in Oz.....

Love those Riccordea's Greg

 

[goma]

Thanks everyone! Much like just about everyone else, it's still a work in progress!

Beautiful colors Greg. Filling in nicely. What are you using to attach your pieces to the rock?

I use JB WaterWeld and Super Glue Gel:

I think I've tried too many things & they just TRY my Patience...gluing is frustrating for me.
Is this J-B water weld a two-part (massage Together, sticks to your fingers messy) stuff?

It is just one stick. You just rip a piece off and massage it and it does stick to your fingers. I make a small ball and then put some super glue gel on each side, stick one side to the frag and then stick it to the rocks.
