NEWBIE QUESTION - The pic titled "some pretty zoas" How did you get them to cover that entire rock like that? Its almost as if theyre growing up the side of it. This very well may be the case (newb).

So, did you buy the rock covered like that or do they just grow and multiply?

"or do they just grow and multiply?"

Yup, they will cover the entire tank eventualy if you let them.

That's just the way zoas grow, up, down, sideways, where ever there's room, and sometimes where there isn't.

Yah my zoas did something weird, the other day i noticed one that had split or came off and then the next day it was in the middle of one of my other rocks.

Your setup is very similar to what I'm planning on doing. Do you have any issues with overheating?

Wow, looks awesome. I imagine in a 29g you have to trim the SPS a lot. 1 or 2 could take over the tank easily.

Nope, no overheating issues at all. And yes, I have to frag very often.
