Everything still running pretty smooth, tank is starting to fill out with some recent additions

Sexy Shrimp


Rainfords Goby


Tailspot Blenny


Best buds always hanging out


New Zoa rock in the back corner


Theres a Green Clown Goby in there somewhere, but he mostly lives inside the Torch and doesn't like getting his picture taken.

My anemone split last week, but both of them still refuse to leave their spot on the glass


New FTS


I added some nice Red Grape Calupera as well and placed it between the big torch and the Gorgonian to stop them from trying to kill each other (small tank problems).

If you look at these 2 pictures closely you can see that I have dozens of tiny Torch heads popping up all over the tank. I've never seen a Euphyllia do this before, but they all grew from tiny specs of fluorescence into tiny heads of torch.




The problem I have is they are everywhere, and sting everything. You can see the GSP is completely surrounded and is struggling to survive, even though it should be the fastest grower in the tank. The gorgonian never gets any polyp extension where it comes in contact with one of these tiny Torch heads.

I guess my question is, how big do you think I should let these heads grow before trying to glue them to frag plugs? Even though they sting some of the other corals nothing has died yet, so I've just been waiting for them to get a decent size before I start clipping and gluing.

Anyone else have any experience with Euphyllia going sexual like this and dozens of heads popping up everywhere?
