quick LOBO brain tips!!!! please!!!

Hey guys, i just got a nice lobo brain from the LFS, and wanted to know

1. how long i should leave in bag, before putting into tank,
2. placement of coral, ie. sandbed? top rockwork? midway through rockwork?
3. does it need to be spot fed? i now, use cyclop-eeze every three days.? is that sufficient?


i have a 65g tank, with one 150watt MH, and two PC 65 watter actinics.

any help immediately would be of great value to me,

thank uyou all

It's a good idea to acclimate the coral for salinity by drip method.

This is a nice basic care sheet on Lobos: http://www.asira.org/lobophylliasymp...thermussideans

You should always place new corals low in the tank, and light acclimate them upwards (if needed) over the course of a few weeks.
