    I just thought I'd remind everyone about the importance to dip your corals.
    I got back from macna last night with 10 frags and 2 maxi minis.
    While acclimating (prior to the bath in coral RX) I found 2 zoa eating nudibranchs in one zoa frag.

    I just dipped my corals in revive and they did not like it to much. Is this stuff supposed to smell like pine sol cleaner? Acans looked real bad and before dipped they looked really good.

    I found a few hitch hikers on a shroom rock. But so far they were all great little additions.A striking striped feather duster and some small shrooms of another kind. I put all my new corals into my small frag tank till I get them either dipped or quaranteened.Better to be safe than sorry. Shaun, what did the zoa eating nudibranch look like?

    Kyle P.S. thanks for the macros. :)

    There he is. I found one more after that.
    I believe this frag came from Pauls Corals.
    also kyle...
    I forgot to tell you how I place the macros in my tank (just in case you have any issues)
    Caulerpa- I just wrap it around a small rubble rock and put a zip tie around it and it grows just fine and covers the rock and grows out. (be careful because this one can take over your tank)
    Gracilarea- I just zip tie the base to a rubble rock to anchor it in one spot.
    Ulva- you can just place a small rock in the center of the leaf to weight it down

    I also found some flatworms on an acro that I got. Coral RX always solves that, but repeated dips are a good idea you guys! Everything looks GREAT!!!!!! I got a porthole viewer for my tank, best purchase EVER!!!!
