just curious, i have a colony of dendros too but yours are clearly more healthy than mine!

i'm going to be transferring them into my new tank in a month or two, how do you have them placed? also, what kind of lighting do you have? mine are yellow and orange but im liking the greeny look more!

I have both in the middle to upper third of the tank - about 12-18 inches from the top. One is shaded under a big monti plate. However, neither are affected by light or need to be light acclimated.

I have 6x54W T5 supplemented by 2 Kessils A150.
You transfer should be fine - they are hardy corals.

As some have said great pics and coral selection, do you target feed the dendros and rhizo specially or just broadcast the tank?

Keep the pics Rollin!

I target feed everything using a "Julian's thing" and a turkey baster. I find broadcasting is a big mess. Even target feeding is still a bit of a messy affair. I've been playing around with simulated continuous feed for the gorgonians and watching the feed response and I am quite skeptical about how effective continuous feed systems are.
