I'm considering going to softies. I'm kinda bored/tired of the fragging, pruning, getting rid of colonies and still not having room in the display. My large clam is trapped now, the only way I can get it out is if I break 2 colonies off of the rock.... I haven't bought a coral for
Well over a year.... Maybe that's why I'm bored. Well, it's pond season now anyway so I'll tinker outside.... Thanks for the avenue for the rant

I am in a serious dellima....
I like to think of it as growing them up larger to decide if I like them or not. Which is why I currently have two "frags" that are now not removeable from the frag rack and the frag racks are pretty much in the tank permanently

Another idea is to put sps frags inside larger colonies.....kinda like the pearl inside an oyster.

Rich put and acro in the center of his red cap and it will look amazing once it fills in, looks kinda artsy aswell.

Brad your tank looks amazing since we last visited at the Vic swap and now with LEDs, when I return from my wedding in August, I will plan a weekend to hit the island to see a few tanks....

Yours, Christy and Waynes tank are on my definate list!

Any pictures of this? Won't a fairly small frag easily be over-powered and killed by the large colony?

I've had acros inside caps before, it works well and looks cool. Cap grows out, acro grows up, everyone gets along. Usually
