Dendro placement suggestions...

[Malibu361]

Hi,I was wondering where in the tank I should place my Dendros ..I want to glue them so they stop falling and was just curious ...I have a 90 with Currents Outer Orbit 2X150 ,14 k Phoenix Mh supplemented with 4 t5 actinics..Thanks Sal

I would place them where you could feed them. My dendro does better in shaded areas. Under a monti cap or shelf rock.

So basicially height is not a big deal ...

I have one placed on the bottom in my 90.

Dendrophyllia are non-photosynthetic, so distance from light is almost a non-issue. Any place away from strong linear flow is fine. A location that suits convenient and easy feeding would help you in the long-term. Less burn-out this way.

Placing under a Monti cap is fine, if you have one. Just make sure that the tentacles, when it's fully opened, doesn't touch it or most anything else that's sessile & alive (read as what you value). A dendro sting packs a potent punch!

mine are in a cave towards the front! They Love it.
Not much light as I felt when placed in the light they did not enjoy the tan!
