Post your long term encrusting monti success stories

I see a lot of pictures of superman, sunset, rainbow and pokerstar frags, but I never see big colonies. Most of the local guys I know that have successful tanks can't seem to keep these things long...

Don't change a thing, the corals are growing that is good. Wait for the colour, i think your tank needs to mature some more before you go crazy with that.

Thanks. I'm actually thinking Gigantea, they are a natural host to the ocellaris and apparently don't grow as big as the other two.

If he was green when you got him, he's certainly bleached now.
Not looking good.
How old is the tank, do you feed the nem? Does it eat when you feed it (tentacles sticky or no?)

Possible to keep a haddoni in one part of the tank?

I have a standard 90 gallon.
I want to build a rock structure to one side of the tank that will limit the ability of the anemone to get around and cause any damage to corals. I have no anemone right...

I don't think that LPS use calcium at the same rate as fast growing SPS, but they most certainly do need to be in a tank where calcium is maintained either with two part or a calcium reactor.
