My strategy backfired BTW, I still had trouble getting up and I still got into work late. AND I forgot my laptop at home, so yeah, I'm totally on fire today! Whoowee! My horoscope said to expect good things today.

Anyhow, they look good, they look really good. Thanks for the pics.

I think for the most part, colour is dependent on lighting and they do sorta change in intensity over time sometimes but it's a give and take sort of thing. My green guy is probably around 12" in diameter and it's still fairly bright green, he was tiny when I got him maybe 4"-5". So anyhow no real reason to expect that it will dullen up over time.
Do you think that the 250 is enough with it being on the bottom? I notice it tends to 'reach' up sometimes, kind of extending towards the light maybe? Starts to look like a toadstool coral when that happens. It really stretches its foot a long way. When it does this, its tentacles are the longest and also most extended they ever get.

Really too bad but I think I am going to have to redo the rockwork to keep the nem happy. And soon. I have noticed its already starting to get shaded a bit by some overhanging rocks and corals

I bet it would be happier if I gave it more room and light.

But I will wait to get a skimmer running on the tank for a few weeks I think before I start to move/remove some LR.
