Thanks for the tips. Yes, I have it in a cave, out of bright light, and I recently installed a refugium to help keep the water free of algae nutrients. I also just bought some frozen cyclopeeze, so I'm glad to hear that will be good for the gorg too.

Also thanks for letting me know it's okay to rub off the algae with my fingers. I wasn't sure if I should try not to touch it too much or if that was okay. I've been avoiding touching too much when I try to prop it up, so maybe that's why I've been having so much trouble getting it set.
