New SW setup, newbie too

[VivaLaVics]

That is an INCREDIBLE transition! This thread was full of great info for me as I am looking to start up my first saltwater tank. It looks great! Thanks for posting so much good info and continuing the thread!

Thanks!! I like feedback...and one of my goals was to post a thread from start to...the never ending finish hoping that people getting into this hobby would have a decent thread to look & read through! Keep coming back!

Here are a few photo's, I left out a shot of the entire tank as the Green Torch is ticked off from me re-positioning it again just now and same for the Toadstool Mushroom, I tipped it over when the UV hose came flying out of the tank.

Oi...

Kenya trees fell and landed in my green torch for a couple hours yesterday.

They were laying down this morning and they didn't look good. I moved them to a high flow part of the tank. Hopefully they will be okay?

Maybe the torch is just a little stressed over the incident.

 

[Dan06]

The torch has been unphased. My alien eye zoos rolled into the torch before too, never bothered it. My two larger Kenya trees are still laying down, it started with one laying down and now the other is laying down. But I did move them to a higher flow part of the tank to see what happens. Don't know what is going on! Just going to be patient and see what happens.

I guess I got the critters mixed up. I'll bet the trees come back too.

 

[Dan06]

They haven't shriveled up or anything, the polyps are still open on most branches...

 

[GregAW]

I've got a pulsing Xenia that every once in a while they get tired and lay down. Some of these critters can give you a scare and then the next thing you know they are back acting normal.

 

[Dan06]

Yeah, I'm hoping that's the issue, my 3rd Kenya tree laid down last week and it's back, bigger and fully than ever. Everything else appears to be just fine...
